Operationally, ranked in the top 3.0% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
Deeper analysis
Automation Anywhere Automation 360 versions 21 through 32 contain a Server-Side Request Forgery vulnerability (CWE-918) in a web API component of the Control Room. The flaw allows an attacker to cause the server to issue arbitrary web requests when the HTTPS service on port 443 or the HTTP service on port 80 is reachable.
An unauthenticated attacker with network access to either Control Room service can exploit the issue to generate outbound requests from the server, achieving limited impact on confidentiality and integrity according to the CVSS 6.9 rating. No authentication or user interaction is required.
The two reference URLs point only to the vendor product page and contain no advisory text, patch details, or mitigation guidance. The associated EPSS score has remained in the moderate range with a current value of 0.3259 and a peak of 0.3559, showing no pronounced post-disclosure climb.
