02 Description

stale SigV4 headers sent unintended

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 ImpacttotalSuccessful exploitation gives total 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
0.31% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
EPSS percentile
Equal to or higher than the score of 24.0% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
NVD base score
The NVD has published no score for this record
NVD CVSS vector
No NVD score to derive
NVD analysis status
Awaiting Analysis. NVD last modified this record on 2026-10-22.
Red Hat severity
Low. Red Hat's rating for its own products, not a CVSS rating.

Exploit-prediction scores from FIRST. Independent scoring and analysis status from the NVD. Vendor severity from Red Hat. Exploitation assessment and catalog membership from CISA.
