Multiple unknown vulnerabilities in the "r-cmnds" (1) remshd, (2) rexecd, (3) rlogind, (4) rlogin, (5) remsh, (6) rcp, (7) rexec, and (8) rdist for HP-UX 10.00 through 11.00 allow attackers to gain privileges or access files.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
- Base score: 10
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 5.06%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 92
- Score date: 10/7/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
