CISA Adds Ray-Project Ray Code Injection Vulnerability to Known Exploited Catalog

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has added one new vulnerability to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog, citing evidence of active exploitation. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-62593, affects Ray-Project Ray. CISA identified this code injection flaw as a frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and noted it poses significant risks to the federal enterprise.

Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04: Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk establishes vulnerability management requirements for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies. The directive requires these agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities listed in the KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation. BOD 26-04 also establishes expectations for agencies to check whether threat actors may have already compromised systems before patches were applied.

While the directive applies specifically to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities. CISA will continue adding vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria of evidence of active exploitation and clear mitigation guidance.
