BOD 26-04 reinforces the importance of the KEV Catalog and requires federal agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities, specifically those identified by Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) listed in CISA\u2019s KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation, while deferring action for lower-risk vulnerabilities. BOD 26-04 further establishes basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised the system before the patch was applied.\nWhile BOD 26-04 applies only to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria.\nAware of an exploited vulnerability not currently listed in the KEV Catalog? Submit it for potential addition through CISA\u2019s KEV Nomination Form. Potential KEV additions must have a CVE ID, evidence of exploitation, and clear mitigation guidance.\nhttps://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2026/08/26/cisa-adds-six-known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog", "creation_timestamp": "2026-09-18T12:00:06.436614Z"}]}
