Patch Panic: CISA Urges Agencies to Fix Exploited Vulnerabilities by February 2025
CISA has added four security flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. With names that sound more like robot uprising software than vulnerabilities, these issues range from forced browsing to local file inclusion. Agencies have until February 25, 2025, to patch them up before the cyber gremlins strike!
Hot Take:
Ah, vulnerabilities—the gift that keeps on giving! Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the digital water, CISA drops four more security flaws on us like a surprise pop quiz. And guess what? They’ve already been exploited in the wild, so it’s less of a pop quiz and more of a final exam you didn’t study for. Get your patching pencils ready, folks!
Key Points:
- CISA has added four vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
- Vulnerabilities include issues in Apache OFBiz, Microsoft .NET Framework, and Paessler PRTG Network Monitor.
