CVE-2000-0685

Status: ModifiedHigh (10)—💥 Exploit

BEA WebLogic 5.1.x does not properly restrict access to the PageCompileServlet, which could allow remote attackers to compile and execute Java JHTML code by directly invoking the servlet on any source file.

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: 12%
Percentile among all scored CVEs: 96
Score date: 10/8/2026

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).

💥 Public exploits

Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
