Absence from CISA KEV does not rule out attacks.

Missing evidence does not mean no public exploit exists.
Remediation
Source guidance available
Review the recorded instructions. Guidance may be a workaround rather than a fixed version.
What this means
In @neo4j/graphql versions 5.0.0 before 5.12.17 and 7.0.0 before 7.6.8, aggregation queries can bypass authentication restrictions, allowing attackers to read protected data. Field-level authentication is not enforced on string aggregates. This weakness may allow unauthenticated callers to obtain aggregate results.

What to do
Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.
Upgrade @neo4j/graphql to 7.6.8 (latest) or 5.12.17 (LTS).
Restrict access to aggregate queries over protected data until the upgrade is applied.

Original source description
Read the full publisher description
Missing Authentication for Critical Function in aggregation queries in Neo4j @neo4j/graphql 5.0.0 before 5.12.17 and 7.0.0 before 7.6.8 allows remote attackers to read protected data via GraphQL aggregation queries. Field-level @authentication is not enforced on string aggregates, which can return stored values verbatim, and connection-root aggregates bypass an entity's AGGREGATE authentication requirement, allowing unauthenticated callers to obtain aggregate results.
