# CVE-2024-37383: RoundCube Webmail Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability

**Signal:** Exploited: patch now if you run it. CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild. (Computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS; not an editorial verdict.)

## Should you act?

- Yes, if you run Roundcube Webmail. CISA added this CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2024-10-24, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild. US federal agencies must remediate by 2024-11-14 ; treat that as the outer limit, not the target.
- EPSS 73.3% , percentile 99: FIRST’s model estimates a 73.3% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 99% of all scored CVEs (very high). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Needs a user to click or open something. Phishing makes that realistic, but it is not wormable.
