Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order
-
1Identify exposure identify
grep -r 'java-se-and-jrockit' . | grep -v node_modulesリポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で `java-se-and-jrockit` を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。
-
4Consider incident declaration escalate
Notify SOC / on-callCISA KEV登録済 = 実環境で悪用が観測されている。Step 3 で兆候があればインシデント対応宣言、無くてもパッチ適用までWAF強化を最優先で。
-
7Post-deployment verification verify
Confirm patched version is live in productionパッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番では Step 3 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
