This critical-severity CVE scores 9.5 under the CNA's CVSS (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 4.9%, top 8% 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).
