Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 23/100)
- 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: 0.19% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. Administrator privileges are required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Google Safearchive f7ce9d7b6f9c6ecd72d0b0f16216b046e55e44dc.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Google Safearchive f7ce9d7b6f9c6ecd72d0b0f16216b046e55e44dc or later.
