US CISA added 17 flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog

US CISA added seventeen new actively exploited vulnerabilities to the ‘Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog’.

The ‘Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog‘ is a list of known vulnerabilities that threat actors have abused in attacks and that are required to be addressed by Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies.

According to Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities, FCEB agencies have to address the identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect their networks against attacks exploiting the flaws in the catalog.

Experts recommend also private organizations review the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog and address the vulnerabilities in their infrastructure.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) this week added seventeen actively exploited vulnerabilities to the Catalog.

The total number of vulnerabilities included in the catalog reached this week 341 vulnerabilities.

CISA is requiring 10 of 17 vulnerabilities added this week to be addressed within February 1st, 2022.
