Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 17/100)

  • 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: 0.77% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 55.6% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise for 32-bit Systems https://aka.ms/OfficeSecurityReleases; Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise for 64-bit Systems https://aka.ms/OfficeSecurityReleases; Microsoft Office LTSC 2024 for 32-bit editions https://aka.ms/OfficeSecurityReleases.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise for 32-bit Systems https://aka.ms/OfficeSecurityReleases; Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise for 64-bit Systems https://aka.ms/OfficeSecurityReleases; Microsoft Office LTSC 2024 for 32-bit editions https://aka.ms/OfficeSecurityReleases or later.

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

No history yet (it accumulates with the daily EPSS job).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.
