CVE-2024-42007
Status: DeferredMedium (5.8)—💥 PoC
SPX (aka php-spx) through 0.4.15 allows SPX_UI_URI Directory Traversal to read arbitrary files.
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N
- Base score: 5.8
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.64%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 49
- Score date: 10/11/2026
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.
