Is CVE-2026-84390 being exploited?

Not confirmed. CVE-2026-84390 does not appear in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, which records only exploitation that has been observed and reported publicly.

How severe is CVE-2026-84390?

CVE-2026-84390 is rated Critical with a CVSS score of 9.8. Severity describes how bad exploitation would be, not how likely it is: pair it with exploitation evidence before deciding what to patch first.

Is there a patch for CVE-2026-84390?
