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-2026-530430.51% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 42% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-532240.52% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 42% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-532250.51% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 42% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-532460.44% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 37% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-533090.40% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 33% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
