Yes. CISA added CVE-2025-58360 to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 11 Dec 2025, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild.
CISA does not list known ransomware use for it. That can change, and exploitation alone is reason to fix it first.
Apply mitigations per vendor instructions, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance for cloud services, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Check OSGeo's advisory for the fixed versions, and if you can't patch quickly, restrict access to the affected GeoServer and watch it for signs of compromise.
