# CVE-2024-28752: SSRF vulnerability using the Aegis DataBinding in Apache CXF

**Signal:** Critical and remotely reachable. No known exploitation yet, but it is network-reachable without credentials. (Computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS; not an editorial verdict.)

## Should you act?

- 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 2.5% , percentile 84: FIRST’s model estimates a 2.5% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 84% of all scored CVEs (elevated). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Only applies if your dependency tree includes org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-databinding-aegis (Maven) < 3.5.8, fixed in 3.5.8 ; org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-databinding-aegis (Maven) >= 3.6.0, < 3.6.3, fixed in 3.6.3 ; org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-databinding-aegis (Maven) >= 4.0.0, < 4.0.4, fixed in 4.0.4 . Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.

## What it is

A SSRF vulnerability using the Aegis DataBinding in versions of Apache CXF before 4.0.4, 3.6.3 and 3.5.8 allows an attacker to perform SSRF style attacks on webservices that take at least one parameter of any type. Users of other data bindings (including the default databinding) are not impacted.

## Affected packages

- Maven `org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-databinding-aegis` < 3.5.8 → fixed: 3.5.8
- Maven `org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-databinding-aegis` >= 3.6.0, < 3.6.3 → fixed: 3.6.3
- Maven `org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-databinding-aegis` >= 4.0.0, < 4.0.4 → fixed: 4.0.4

## Affected products (CVE record)

- Apache Software Foundation Apache CXF: < 4.0.4, 3.6.3, 3.5.8

## Severity

- CISA-ADP CVSS 3.1: 9.3 `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N`
- GitHub CVSS 4.0: 9.3 `CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:N`

## Exploitation

- CISA KEV: not listed (no confirmed in-the-wild exploitation known to CISA).
- CISA SSVC assessment: exploitation none , automatable no , technical impact total .
- FIRST EPSS (model of 2026-10-21): 2.47% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 84.
