# CVE-2024-6670: Progress WhatsUp Gold SQL Injection 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 Progress WhatsUp Gold. CISA added this CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2024-09-16, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild.

- EPSS 93.0% , percentile 99.8: FIRST’s model estimates a 93.0% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 99.8% of all scored CVEs (very high). 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.
