EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
How urgent is this, really
CVE-2026-46700 plotted by exploitation likelihood (EPSS) against impact (CVSS). The shaded corner — EPSS 50%+ and CVSS 7.0+ — is where this CVE doesn't sit, though severity or exploitability alone can still warrant action.
Where this sits among everything scored
Of 377,166 CVEs with a current EPSS score, this one falls in the < 10% band (highlighted). Real counts from FIRST.org, not a sample — log-scaled since the landscape is heavily right-skewed.
Real-World Exposure
How broadly this vulnerability is actually deployed: weekly install volume shows current usage, and reverse-dependency count shows how many other packages break if it stays unpatched.
@actual-app/sync-servernpmDescription
Actual is a local-first personal finance tool. Prior to 26.6.0, the GET /secret/:name endpoint in @actual-app/sync-server checks only that the caller has a valid session and does not verify the caller is an admin, while the sibling POST /secret/ handler enforces an admin check in OpenID mode. Any authenticated non-admin BASIC user in OpenID multi-user deployments can probe the secrets store and learn which admin-managed bank-sync integrations have been configured, including simplefin_accessKey, pluggyai_clientSecret, pluggyai_itemIds, and the gocardless secrets. This issue is fixed in version 26.6.0.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for @actual-app/sync-server, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update @actual-app/sync-server to 26.6.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-46700 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2026-46700 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to CVE-2026-46700. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
