Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 29/100)
- 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: 0.28% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. Administrator privileges are required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
reNgine is an automated reconnaissance framework for web applications. A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the admin panel's user management functionality. An attacker can exploit this issue by injecting malicious payloads into the username field during user creation. This vulnerability allows unauthorized script execution whenever the admin views or interacts with the affected user entry, posing a significant risk to sensitive admin functionalities. This issue affects all versions up to and including 2.20. Users are advised to monitor the project for future releases which address this issue. There are no known workarounds.
