Exploitation outlook
EPSS (FIRST.org) estimates each CVE’s probability of exploitation in the next 30 days — here is the CSIRTS.com read on those numbers.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-593090.74% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 51% of all scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-478760.28% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 20% of all scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-417030.56% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 43% of all scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-417090.38% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 31% of all scored CVEs.
- Moderate exploitation riskCVE-2026-593101.1% 30-day exploitation probability. Patch within normal cadence, watch for KEV listing. Riskier than 63% of all scored CVEs.
