Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 11 Feb 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

Description

It was discovered that Python-Multipart incorrectly handled certain regular expressions. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Python-Multipart to consume excessive resources, leading to a regular expression denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-24762) It was discovered that Python-Multipart did not properly sanitize line breaks during user input. An attacker could use this issue to send arbitrary input, thus preventing other requests from being processed, resulting in a denial of service. This issue was only fixed in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-53981) It was discovered that Python-Multipart was vulnerable to path traversal attacks. An attacker could possibly craft and upload files outside the target directory, resulting in remote code execution. (CVE-2026-24486)
