CVE-2025-58034: An Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability [CWE-78] vulnerability in…
Noroxi assessment
Priority: This week (action score 74/100)
- CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Nov 18, 2025). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Nov 25, 2025.
- A ready-made attack module is public (Metasploit); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 54.7% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. Administrator privileges are required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
Don’t wait for the next maintenance window. Until a fix is released, restrict access to the affected component and follow the vendor's advisory.
