## English — “Current security vulnerabilities” that matter right now
### 1) What “current” means in practice
In operational security, “current vulnerabilities” usually means: (a) confirmed exploitation in the wild, (b) widely weaponized proofs-of-concept, or (c) extremely common software with high-impact bugs where exposure is broad (internet-facing). A practical way to prioritize is to follow “Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV)” signals and vendor emergency advisories. ([NVD][1])
---
### 2) High-risk items to prioritize immediately (real-world exploitation / KEV-class issues)
#### A. Web framework / app servers — React2Shell (React Server Components) RCE
* **CVE-2025-55182 (React Server Components / Flight protocol)**: Critical, unauthenticated **remote code execution** through insecure deserialization behavior in the React 19 ecosystem and affected frameworks (notably Next.js branches using RSC). It is **listed as exploited** and has clear “patch-now” urgency. ([NVD][1])
* **Who is at risk**: Internet-facing Next.js/React servers using vulnerable RSC implementations; CI/CD and backend environments become downstream blast radius if the web tier falls. ([Unit 42][2])
* **What to do (defensive)**:
* Upgrade to patched versions (vendor guidance commonly points to **React 19.0.1 / 19.1.2 / 19.2.1** and patched Next.js point releases). ([Unit 42][2])
* Reduce exposure: ensure admin endpoints are not public; segment server networks; enforce least privilege for runtime identities (cloud credentials, service accounts).
* Detection (high level): look for unexpected server-side child processes (download utilities, shells) spawned by web workers; anomalous outbound traffic from web nodes; suspicious bursts of scanning traffic to RSC-related endpoints. (Keep this as behavioral hunting—do not rely on a single “signature”.) ([Unit 42][2])
#### B. Network edge appliances — Fortinet FortiCloud SSO authentication bypass
* **CVE-2025-59718 / CVE-2025-59719 (Fortinet products)**: Critical SSO authentication bypass caused by improper cryptographic signature verification in SAML flows; **active exploitation observed**. ([fortiguard.com][3])
* **Who is at risk**: FortiOS / FortiProxy / FortiSwitchManager / FortiWeb deployments where FortiCloud SSO login paths are reachable; note that operational behaviors can enable features unintentionally in real environments. ([fortiguard.com][3])
* **What to do (defensive)**:
* Apply Fortinet patches per PSIRT advisory and **disable FortiCloud SSO login** where possible until fully remediated. ([fortiguard.com][3])
* Restrict management interfaces to internal networks/VPN only; rotate admin credentials and review admin accounts after patching.
#### C. Network edge appliances — WatchGuard Fireware OS IKEv2 RCE
* **CVE-2025-14733 (WatchGuard Fireware OS)**: Critical out-of-bounds write that can allow **unauthenticated remote code execution**, observed exploitation attempts; especially relevant where IKEv2 VPN configurations include dynamic gateway peers. ([NVD][4])
* **What to do (defensive)**:
* Patch Fireware OS to fixed versions. ([NVD][4])
* Reduce attack surface: ensure VPN/IKE services aren’t unnecessarily exposed; tighten allowlists; remove “dynamic peer” exposure patterns where feasible.
#### D. Email security appliances — Cisco AsyncOS zero-day in Secure Email products
* **CVE-2025-20393 (Cisco AsyncOS on Secure Email Gateway / Email & Web Manager)**: Critical vulnerability exploited in active campaigns enabling **root-level command execution** on affected appliances, with specific risk depending on exposed features/configuration. ([Cisco][5])
* **What to do (defensive)**:
* Follow Cisco advisory guidance: reduce exposure of the vulnerable interfaces/features, limit internet accessibility, and treat confirmed compromise as a “rebuild/restore-to-known-good” event for appliances. ([Cisco][5])
#### E. Browsers / web engines — Chrome & Apple WebKit exploited issues
* **Chrome: CVE-2025-14174** — Google explicitly noted an exploit exists in the wild; emergency stable updates were shipped. ([Chrome Releases][6])
* **Apple WebKit: CVE-2025-14174 and CVE-2025-43529** — Apple states these may have been exploited in sophisticated targeted attacks; fixes shipped across iOS/iPadOS/macOS/Safari families. ([애플 지원][7])
* **What to do (defensive)**:
* Enforce rapid browser and OS patching (managed update policies, minimum versions).
* For high-risk users (admins, finance, executives): separate admin browsing from privileged operations; consider hardened browsing profiles; limit extension sprawl.
#### F. Windows endpoints — exploited elevation-of-privilege in the wild
* **CVE-2025-62221 (Windows Cloud Files Mini Filter Driver EoP)**: Listed as exploited; attackers with local foothold can escalate privileges—this matters because many “big” incidents start with initial access and then pivot to privilege escalation + credential theft. ([NVD][8])
* **What to do (defensive)**:
* Patch endpoints/servers quickly; monitor for suspicious privilege elevation behavior; tighten local admin rights and lateral movement paths.
#### G. Patch management infrastructure — WSUS RCE (still operationally relevant)
* **CVE-2025-59287 (WSUS)**: Critical unauthenticated RCE observed exploited; WSUS is high-value because it sits on the “trust distribution” path for updates inside enterprises. ([Unit 42][9])
* **What to do (defensive)**:
* Ensure all out-of-band and subsequent fixes are applied; isolate WSUS from direct internet exposure; monitor unusual process execution and lateral movement from WSUS hosts.
---
### 3) Practical “do-this-now” triage workflow (works for both enterprises and small teams)
1. **Inventory internet-facing assets first**: VPN/firewall appliances, email security appliances, CI/CD, web apps (especially React/Next.js), and remote management portals.
2. **Match exposure + exploit signals**:
* Unauthenticated RCE / auth bypass on public-facing services gets top priority (patch or disable feature immediately). ([Unit 42][2])
3. **Apply compensating controls where patching is delayed**:
* Disable vulnerable features/SSO paths; restrict management interfaces; enforce allowlists; place sensitive admin portals behind VPN; tighten firewall policies.
4. **Credential hygiene after patching**:
* Rotate admin credentials and API keys that could have been exposed; check for new admin accounts; review SSO configurations and signing keys where applicable. ([fortiguard.com][3])
5. **Detection and response basics**:
* Centralize logs; alert on unusual outbound traffic from edge devices; watch for new persistence mechanisms on appliances; isolate suspicious hosts quickly.
---
### 4) Developer-focused hardening (applies directly to modern web stacks)
* Treat web framework CVEs like React2Shell as “supply chain + runtime” risk:
* Maintain lockfiles, automate dependency updates, and gate deploys on known-critical CVEs (SBOM + policy). ([NVD][1])
* Minimize secrets on web nodes; use short-lived credentials; store secrets in managed vaults; deny metadata access where possible.
* Put RSC/SSR apps behind WAF/CDN with strict request validation and rate-limiting; isolate build pipelines from production runtime networks.

## 한국어 — “현재 보안 취약점”에서 지금 당장 위험한 것들
### 1) “현재”의 의미
현업에서 “현재 보안 취약점”은 보통 (1) 실제 공격에 악용 중, (2) 공격 코드가 널리 퍼짐, (3) 사용량이 압도적으로 많고 인터넷 노출이 흔한 제품에서 치명적 결함이 나온 경우를 뜻합니다. KEV(실제 악용 취약점) 신호와 벤더 긴급 권고를 기준으로 우선순위를 잡는 게 실무적으로 가장 빠릅니다. ([NVD][1])
### 2) 우선순위 “최상” (즉시 조치 권고)
* **React2Shell: CVE-2025-55182 (React Server Components/Flight 프로토콜)**
인증 없이 서버에서 **원격 코드 실행(RCE)**이 가능한 급의 이슈로, React 19 계열 및 관련 프레임워크(특히 Next.js RSC 사용 구간)에 큰 영향을 줍니다. 실제 악용 징후와 패치 권고가 명확합니다. ([NVD][1])
* 조치: React/Next.js를 벤더 권고의 패치 버전으로 업그레이드, 공개 노출 엔드포인트 최소화, 런타임 권한 최소화/네트워크 분리. ([Unit 42][2])
* **Fortinet FortiCloud SSO 우회: CVE-2025-59718 / CVE-2025-59719**
SAML 서명 검증 문제로 **SSO 인증 우회**가 가능한 치명적 이슈이며, 실제 공격이 관측되었습니다. ([fortiguard.com][3])
* 조치: PSIRT 권고에 따라 패치 적용, 가능하면 FortiCloud SSO 로그인 비활성화, 관리 인터페이스 내부망 제한, 관리자 계정/설정 점검 및 자격증명 교체. ([fortiguard.com][3])
* **WatchGuard Fireware OS IKEv2 RCE: CVE-2025-14733**
특정 IKEv2 구성(동적 게이트웨이 피어 등)에서 **원격 코드 실행**이 가능한 치명적 취약점이며, 실제 악용 시도가 보고되었습니다. ([NVD][4])
* 조치: Fireware OS 패치, VPN/IKE 노출 최소화(불필요한 인터넷 공개 제거), 접근 제어 강화. ([NVD][4])
* **Cisco Secure Email(AsyncOS) 제로데이: CVE-2025-20393**
이메일 보안 어플라이언스에서 **root 권한 명령 실행**으로 이어질 수 있는 치명적 취약점이 실제 캠페인에서 악용되었습니다. ([Cisco][5])
* 조치: Cisco 권고에 따라 노출 기능/인터페이스 통제, 인터넷 직접 노출 제거, 침해 확인 시 “클린 재구축” 수준으로 대응 필요. ([Cisco][5])
* **브라우저/웹엔진(일반 사용자도 직접 영향)**
* Chrome **CVE-2025-14174**: 구글이 “실제 악용”을 명시했습니다. ([Chrome Releases][6])
* Apple WebKit **CVE-2025-14174 / CVE-2025-43529**: 애플이 고도화된 표적 공격에서의 악용 가능성을 언급하며 다수 OS/Safari에 패치 배포. ([애플 지원][7])
* 조치: 브라우저/OS 강제 업데이트 정책, 고권한 계정은 별도 브라우징/업무 분리(관리자 권한 작업과 웹서핑 분리).
* **Windows 권한상승: CVE-2025-62221 (악용 등재)**
로컬 foothold가 있는 공격자가 SYSTEM 권한으로 올라갈 수 있어, 침해사고 확산 단계에서 매우 위험합니다. ([NVD][8])
* 조치: OS 패치, 로컬 관리자 최소화, EDR/로그로 권한상승 흔적 탐지.
* **WSUS RCE: CVE-2025-59287**
패치 배포 인프라 자체가 공격 표적이 되며 실제 악용이 관측되었습니다. ([Unit 42][9])
* 조치: OOB 포함 최신 패치 적용, WSUS 인터넷 노출 금지, WSUS 서버에서의 비정상 프로세스/네트워크 활동 모니터링.
### 3) “지금 당장” 실행 순서(현실적인 대응 플로우)
1. 인터넷 노출 자산(방화벽/VPN/메일보안/관리포털/웹앱/CI)부터 목록화 → 2) “무인증 RCE/인증우회”를 최우선 패치/비활성화 → 3) 관리 인터페이스 내부망 제한/접근제어 강화 → 4) 패치 후 관리자 계정/토큰/키 교체 및 계정 무결성 점검 → 5) 의심 징후 발생 시 즉시 격리·포렌식 착수. ([fortiguard.com][3])
