Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 24/100)
- A ready-made attack module is public (Metasploit); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 13.1% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 96.2% of all records.
- No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.
