Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 37/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.41% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: C4illin ConvertX 0.19.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to C4illin ConvertX 0.19.0 or later.
