VulnCheck Launches Canary Intelligence to Confirm Active Exploitation Evidence

VulnCheck

VulnCheck, the exploit intelligence company, recently launched a new product. This powerful tool is called Canary Intelligence. It gives defenders real-time proof of Active Exploitation. VulnCheck helps security teams prioritize and patch vulnerabilities faster. Therefore, this confident response prevents serious breaches. Canary Intelligence provides first-party, validated exploitation data. These data points come from vulnerable systems deployed worldwide. In contrast, traditional reports rely on secondary or less certain data. VulnCheck constantly observes exploitation within these intentional systems. This provides early indicators of real-world attacker activity.

Verified Threat Prioritization

Each event captured contains verified data. This includes the attacking host, the targeted CVE, and the payload used. Jacob Baines, the VulnCheck CTO, spoke about the release. He stated that the new service replaces speculation with certainty. Security teams now confirm vulnerabilities under Active Exploitation in the wild. They know who is attacking and with what payloads. This verified telemetry helps organizations prioritize remediation efforts. They focus on real-world attacker behavior, not just theoretical severity scores.

Global Security Insight

Canary Intelligence allows teams to do several things. First, they correlate real attacker activity with known threat actors. This enriches existing response workflows and tooling. They also confirm when known threat actors use specific exploits. Furthermore, the product accelerates coverage deployment for zero-day exploits. VulnCheck recently highlighted the service in action. They documented the detection of XWiki CVE-2025-24893 exploitation. The findings detailed a two-stage attack chain. This chain delivered a coin miner using a template-injection vulnerability. VulnCheck Canaries have observed exploit activity for 231 VulnCheck KEVs. The new product offers crucial visibility. It integrates seamlessly into VulnCheck’s full suite of intelligence products. Verified exploitation data is available instantly through API and UI. The service is now generally available for teams to use for better Active Exploitation defense.
