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 (189a06b0d55d6dab795bcb9ba3a97aa855b2556a54e85e15adc9f5bf20399976) [email protected] declares preinstall and postinstall lifecycle scripts that execute scripts/run.js on `npm install`. That script reads os.userInfo().username and os.hostname() and POSTs them to a hardcoded out-of-band collector at https://webhook.site/40e9b065-efd7-43a5-916f-3d52281f42b6, and additionally issues a DNS lookup against 40e9b065-efd7-43a5-916f-3d52281f42b6.dnshook.site as a canary. The version number (99.2.1) and package name pattern are consistent with a dependency-confusion lure intended to win resolution against an internal package of the same name; installing the lure automatically leaks installer identity to an author-controlled endpoint.
