signals
public sources
High CVSS base score, but low real-world exploitation probability (EPSS). Likely less urgent than the score implies.
public exploits
links to sources — we don’t host codeA working exploit is publicly available from a maintained source. Treat this as higher urgency and verify your exposure.

Real, but low real-world risk
A genuine vulnerability on paper, but EPSS shows little real-world exploitation — the base score may overstate urgency. This is not the same as a false positive.

openDCIM version 23.04, through commit 4467e9c4, contains a SQL injection vulnerability in Config::UpdateParameter. The install.php and container-install.php handlers pass user-supplied input directly into SQL statements using string interpolation without prepared statements or proper input sanitation. An authenticated user can execute arbitrary SQL statements against the underlying database.
