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.

• Moderate exploitation riskCVE-2025-551301.7% 30-day exploitation probability. Patch within normal cadence, watch for KEV listing. Riskier than 75% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
• Moderate exploitation riskCVE-2025-551313.4% 30-day exploitation probability. Patch within normal cadence, watch for KEV listing. Riskier than 88% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
• Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-551320.24% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 14% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
• Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-594640.24% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 15% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
• Moderate exploitation riskCVE-2025-594653.8% 30-day exploitation probability. Patch within normal cadence, watch for KEV listing. Riskier than 89% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
• Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-594660.65% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 48% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
• Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-216360.83% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 55% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
• Moderate exploitation riskCVE-2026-216371.1% 30-day exploitation probability. Patch within normal cadence, watch for KEV listing. Riskier than 63% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
