02 Description

Unbound: null pointer dereference in unbound

03 Exploitation and scoring

Exploitation

Public exploit code exists. CISA's assessment records a public proof of concept. That is not a report of exploitation in the wild.

SSVC decision

ExploitationpocPublic proof-of-concept exploit code exists. Not a report of exploitation in the wild.
AutomatablenoAt least one step from reconnaissance to exploitation cannot be reliably automated.
Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.

CISA publishes the decision points, not a final SSVC decision. The decision also depends on mission and well-being impact, which is a property of your deployment rather than of the vulnerability.

EPSS probability

0.39% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.

EPSS percentile

Ranks above 31.8% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.

NVD base score

2.8 (CVSS v3.x), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
