Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)

  • A ready-made attack module is public (Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (Exploit-DB / GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 6.7% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 93.9% of all records.
  • No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: vsftpd (Debian:12) 3.0.2-18; vsftpd (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 3.0.3-7.1; vsftpd (SUSE:Linux Enterprise Server 12) 3.0.2-18.1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to vsftpd (Debian:12) 3.0.2-18; vsftpd (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 3.0.3-7.1; vsftpd (SUSE:Linux Enterprise Server 12) 3.0.2-18.1 or later.

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
