Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 35/100)
- 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: 0.50% (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: Roundcube Webmail 1.6.18, 1.7.3.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 5.4, NVD 8.8.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Roundcube Webmail 1.6.18, 1.7.3 or later.
