- EPSS 6.5% , percentile 94: FIRST’s model estimates a 6.5% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 94% of all scored CVEs (elevated). 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 github.com/mayuresh82/gocast (Go) <= 1.1.3, no fixed version listed . Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.
