CVSS base score: 9.8 (Critical) vendor CNA · v3.1
Score assigned by the vendor's own CVE Numbering Authority (CNA); CISA's Vulnrichment program adds a score only when the CNA omits one.
OSGeo GeoServer GeoTools Eval Injection Vulnerability
Vendor: OSGeo Product: GeoServer
OSGeo GeoServer GeoTools contains an improper neutralization of directives in dynamically evaluated code vulnerability due to unsafely evaluating property names as XPath expressions. This allows unauthenticated attackers to conduct remote code execution via specially crafted input.
Each milestone comes from a different source, so gaps between them are gaps in what those sources publish, not evidence that nothing happened. EPSS history for this CVE holds 128 points from 2024-07-06, tracked daily from 2026-09-09; earlier points are weekly, which dates a spike to within a week. Peak probability 99.8% on 2026-06-20.

Articles from monitored vendor research blogs and security news feeds that specifically mention this CVE. Coverage begins when feed monitoring started; earlier articles are not indexed.
Coverage across public collections only: Nuclei and OpenVAS NVT (scan);
Snort and Suricata ET Open (network); Sigma and YARA (host/SIEM);
Metasploit, Exploit-DB and public GitHub repositories (exploit). Absence
here means nothing public was found, not that detection is impossible.
GitHub PoC repositories are collected automatically by
PoC-in-GitHub (CC0) and are not vetted:
some are fakes and some are malware. Treat them as evidence that code was
published, not as code to run.
OpenVAS coverage derives from the Greenbone Community Feed, made available

No exploit-tool sightings recorded for this CVE.
Evidence tiers are explained on the About page — a merged Metasploit module is far stronger evidence than a distro package mention.
