CISA Adds Five Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog AlertsCISA

CISA has added five new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation.

CVE-2016-7836 SKYSEA Client View Improper Authentication Vulnerability
CVE-2025-6264 Rapid7 Velociraptor Incorrect Default Permissions Vulnerability
CVE-2025-24990 Microsoft Windows Untrusted Pointer Dereference Vulnerability
CVE-2025-47827 IGEL OS Use of a Key Past its Expiration Date Vulnerability
CVE-2025-59230 Microsoft Windows Improper Access Control Vulnerability

These types of vulnerabilities are frequent attack vectors for malicious cyber actors and pose significant risks to the federal enterprise.
Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities established the KEV Catalog as a living list of known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that carry significant risk to the federal enterprise. BOD 22-01 requires Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to remediate identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect FCEB networks against active threats. See the BOD 22-01 Fact Sheet for more information.
Although BOD 22-01 only applies to FCEB agencies, CISA strongly urges all organizations to reduce their exposure to cyberattacks by prioritizing timely remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities as part of their vulnerability management practice. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria.
