The Circuitry is a passion project I've always wanted to build, and I love the work behind it.

Running it costs real money. APIs, hosting, time. To keep improving the site and growing this into something useful for everyone, those costs have to be covered.

Any contribution is appreciated. If not, no pressure. Thanks for reading.

CISA Adds KNX Protocol CVE-2023-4346 to KEV Catalog

CISA added CVE-2023-4346 affecting KNX Association KNX Protocol Connection Authorization Option 1 to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-07-15. Federal agencies must finish remediation by 2026-07-29.
