Act-Now Shortlist (Patch/mitigate first)
- Citrix NetScaler — Memory Overflow (CVE-2025-7775)
- Why it matters: Listed by CISA KEV as actively exploited. Federal guidance implies real-world attacks.
- Action: Apply vendor-fixed builds immediately; restrict management plane exposure; monitor for anomalous process crashes and traffic spikes on gateway/AAA. CISA
- Linux Kernel ≤ 6.17-rc2 — iommu stack overflow (CVE-2025-38676)
- Why it matters: Critical kernel-level overflow → potential for privilege escalation or crash; broad distro impact likely.
- Action: Pull upstream/distro patches when available; tighten kernel module loading; increase EDR telemetry for kernel faults. vuldb.com
- TP-Link KP303 Smart Plug — Access control issue (CVE-2025-8627)
- Why it matters: Critical on a consumer/SMB IoT device that’s often exposed via cloud or UPnP; can become a foothold on flat networks.
- Action: Update firmware; disable remote access; segment IoT VLANs; block unsolicited inbound from WAN. vuldb.com
- WP Mailgun SMTP Plugin ≤ 1.0.7 — Authorization flaw (CVE-2025-48327)
- Why it matters: Critical; popular WordPress integration → easy mass-exploitation of sites.
- Action: Update plugin; rotate API keys; review admin users & logs for unexpected mail/send events. vuldb.com
- Invoice Ninja ≤ 5.0.174 (macOS) — Sensitive data exposure (CVE-2025-8700)
- Why it matters: Finance/billing data at risk; common self-host & SaaS footprint.
- Action: Update; enforce least privilege; review object storage/buckets and app logs for leakage paths. vuldb.com

Defensive Playbook (quick wins)
- Internet-facing first: inventory & patch NetScaler gateways, WordPress sites (Mailgun SMTP/Video Gallery), IoT (TP-Link KP303), and any exposed PHP panels.
- Exploit telemetry: enable WAF/Reverse-proxy request logging; watch for spikes in
POSTto admin/auth endpoints; kernel crash traces on Linux nodes. - Credential hygiene: rotate secrets/API keys after plugin updates; enforce SSO/MFA where possible.
- Segmentation: put IoT and management planes on isolated VLANs; restrict East-West L3.
- Threat hunt seeds:
- NetScaler: anomalous crashes/restarts, unexpected files in
/var/and odd cron entries. - WordPress: new admin users, modified plugin files, outbound SMTP surges.
- Linux: kernel oops/panic around IOMMU; unusual kworker activity.
- NetScaler: anomalous crashes/restarts, unexpected files in
