Is CVE-2022-2414 being actively exploited?
Not that we know of. CVE-2022-2414 is not in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Its EPSS score of 85.6% is the estimated probability that it will be exploited in the next 30 days. That is higher than 100% of all scored CVEs.
How severe is CVE-2022-2414?
CVE-2022-2414 has a CVSS v3 base score of 7.5, rated high. CVSS rates the technical impact if the vulnerability is exploited, not how likely that is, so weigh it alongside the exploit-prediction score when you decide what to patch first.
What does CVE-2022-2414 affect?
Published advisories record a fix for jss-0:4.9.3 (Red Hat / RHEL), jss-0:4.9.3 (Rocky), jss-debuginfo-0:4.9.3 (Red Hat / RHEL), jss-debuginfo-0:4.9.3 (Rocky), and 43 more. Only products with a sourced advisory are listed, so treat this as what we can cite rather than a complete inventory.
