Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 32/100)

  • A ready-made attack module is public (Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 37.9% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 98.5% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
  • Fixed version: Unknown EventON 2.2.7, 4.5.5.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Unknown EventON 2.2.7, 4.5.5 or later.
