Public exploit code

62 public repositories referencing this CVE have been catalogued on GitHub. That volume usually means a reliable, widely-reproduced exploit. Treat this as a strong signal to prioritise patching, not as a verified working exploit — many such repositories are scanners, write-ups or forks rather than functional code.
