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-2024-361370.40% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 33% 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.
- Elevated exploitation riskCVE-2026-2171025.0% 30-day exploitation probability — well above the norm. Schedule remediation this cycle. Riskier than 98% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-217110.15% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 4% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-217120.32% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 25% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-217130.39% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 32% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-217140.45% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 38% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-217150.16% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 5% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-217160.15% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 5% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-217170.27% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 19% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
