CVE-2026-33328

MEDIUMPre-NVD 6.86.8
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 6.8 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.1%, top 98% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
