Noroxi assessment
Priority: This week (action score 65/100)
- CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Oct 20, 2026). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Oct 23, 2026.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 2.5% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 84.8% of all records.
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: EG Secure Solutions Inc. SiteGuard Server Edition for Apache httpd Ver8.00 Update 5; EG Secure Solutions Inc. SiteGuard Server Edition for Apache httpd on FreeBSD Ver7.00 Update 6; EG Secure Solutions Inc. SiteGuard Server Edition for IIS Ver3.10, Ver8.00 Update 5.
Don’t wait for the next maintenance window. Upgrade to EG Secure Solutions Inc. SiteGuard Server Edition for Apache httpd Ver8.00 Update 5; EG Secure Solutions Inc. SiteGuard Server Edition for Apache httpd on FreeBSD Ver7.00 Update 6; EG Secure Solutions Inc. SiteGuard Server Edition for IIS Ver3.10, Ver8.00 Update 5 or later.
