      description: 'CVEs that VulnCheck KEV, VulnCheck canaries, Microsoft MSRC, Google Project Zero, ENISA EU KEV, CIRCL sightings or FortiGuard report as exploited while they remain outside CISA KEV, ranked by a published point table. Every row carries its reports (source, date, URL), its evidence pattern and, for the 90 days after its first report and where at least 40 similar CVEs exist, the measured share of that pattern CISA listed within 90 days. A tier is paged with limit and page, and total is the tier''s row count. Keyed; private-cacheable for 900s. Data attribution: VulnCheck KEV (community).'
