Exploitation and risk
Source statusCISA KEV lists vulnerabilities known to be exploited. FIRST EPSS estimates the likelihood of exploitation in the next 30 days. An unavailable score does not mean zero risk.
Which CVEs have scores here?
This view includes predictions for CVE identifiers explicitly listed in public NuGet advisories. Microsoft release pages have their own prediction coverage. Check source status for the scope and latest checks.
No exploitation or prediction data is available here for these CVEs. This does not mean they are safe or unlikely to be exploited.

Published--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: amazon-inspector (29840a9eddc4894177d910b38ef1808c0ba7a402c267160fe8e86cff48873700) The npm postinstall hook executes postinstall.js, which uses child_process to spawn a Python reverse shell that connects to the hardcoded remote host 14.225.210.85:80 and dup2's a PTY-backed /bin/sh over the socket, giving the operator of that host an interactive shell on the installer's machine. Execution is gated by a hostname allowlist check (os.hostname() === 'ubuntu-fc-uvm'), a target-restriction technique that keeps the payload dormant on unintended hosts (scanners, sandboxes) and only detonates on the intended victim. The package presents itself as a Strapi plugin but ships no plugin functionality relevant to the postinstall behavior; the postinstall is the payload.
