Noroxi assessment
Priority: Plan (action score 44/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 13.7% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 96.5% of all records.
- No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: samba (Debian:12) 3.0.7; samba (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:3::as) 0:3.0.7-1.3E.1; samba-client (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:3::as) 0:3.0.7-1.3E.1.
Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to samba (Debian:12) 3.0.7; samba (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:3::as) 0:3.0.7-1.3E.1; samba-client (Red Hat:enterprise_linux:3::as) 0:3.0.7-1.3E.1 or later.
