CVE-2018-6961

Estado: AnalizadaAlta (8.1)⚠ Explotación activa💥 Exploit

VMware NSX SD-WAN Edge by VeloCloud prior to version 3.1.0 contains a command injection vulnerability in the local web UI component. This component is disabled by default and should not be enabled on untrusted networks. VeloCloud by VMware will be removing this service from the product in future releases. Successful exploitation of this issue could result in remote code execution.

CVSS

Versión: 3.1
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Puntuación base: 8.1

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 86%
Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 100
Fecha de la puntuación: 7/10/2026

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

CISA KEV — explotada activamente

Añadida al catálogo: 25/3/2022
Plazo de remediación: 15/4/2022
Uso conocido en ransomware: Unknown

💥 Exploits públicos

Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
