## How to prioritise Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) patching

This order follows the data Threadlinqs holds for Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), not a generic severity checklist:

- No Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) CVE is in CISA KEV yet, so rank by exploit probability instead.
- Outside KEV, the highest EPSS scores are [CVE-2026-23816](https://intel.threadlinqs.com/cve/CVE-2026-23816) (1.2%), [CVE-2026-23815](https://intel.threadlinqs.com/cve/CVE-2026-23815) (1%), [CVE-2026-73749](https://intel.threadlinqs.com/cve/CVE-2026-73749) (0.8%).
- 2 CVEs score Critical and 13 High on CVSS v3 (maximum 9.8, average 8.4); sequence these after KEV and high-EPSS items.
- 5 CVEs have a public exploit or proof of concept recorded, which shortens the time from disclosure to attack.
