# CVE-2024-8068: Citrix Session Recording Improper Privilege Management 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?

- EPSS 3.5% , percentile 89: FIRST’s model estimates a 3.5% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 89% of all scored CVEs (elevated). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
