What to do

  1. Prioritise patching the listed CVEs, starting with those on CISA's KEV catalogue.
  2. Check whether your estate runs Citrix, Microsoft, Fortinet, Ivanti, Palo Alto or Cisco products covered in the report.
  3. Verify the validity of any public proof-of-concept exploit before testing it.
