- 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: 0.63% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 50.2% 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.
- Fixed version: JetBrains YouTrack 2024.3.47707.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 5.3, NVD 7.5.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to JetBrains YouTrack 2024.3.47707 or later.
