CVSS 9.8 Critical EPSS 1.4% · p73
Should you act?
Critical and remotely reachable
No known exploitation yet, but it is network-reachable without credentials. This signal is computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS data; it is not an editorial verdict.
- No confirmed exploitation. It is not in CISA’s KEV catalog and CISA’s SSVC assessment records no known exploitation. That can change quickly after a public write-up; re-check if you are affected.
- EPSS 1.4%, percentile 73: FIRST’s model estimates a 1.4% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 73% of all scored CVEs (moderate). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Remotely reachable with no login and no user interaction. If the vulnerable service is exposed to the internet, prioritize it.
- Only applies if your dependency tree includes
org.apache.iotdb:iotdb-core(Maven) >= 1.0.0, < 1.3.4, fixed in 1.3.4;apache-iotdb(PyPI) >= 1.0.0, < 1.3.4, fixed in 1.3.4. Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.
What it is
Remote Code Execution with untrusted URI of UDF vulnerability in Apache IoTDB. The attacker who has privilege to create UDF can register malicious function from untrusted URI. This issue affects Apache IoTDB: from 1.0.0 before 1.3.4. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.3.4, which fixes the issue.
