Local file inclusion vulnerability in M-Files Server
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)
- 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: 0.38% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: M-Files Corporation" M-Files Server 24.11.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to M-Files Corporation" M-Files Server 24.11 or later.
