Attack Vector
Local
Attack Vector (AV:L): requires local access. attacker must have shell access or physical login.
Attack Complexity
Low
Attack Complexity (AC:L): no special conditions needed. attack can be reliably reproduced.
Attack Requirements
None
Attack Requirements (AT:N): no special deployment or execution conditions needed.
Privileges Required
None
Privileges Required (PR:N): no authentication needed. any anonymous attacker can exploit this.
User Interaction
Active
User Interaction (UI:A): victim must actively perform a specific action (e.g. entering credentials).
vulnerable system impact
Vuln Confidentiality
High
Confidentiality (VC:H): total information disclosure. attacker gains access to all data within the component.
Vuln Integrity
High
Integrity (VI:H): complete data modification possible. attacker can modify any data.
Vuln Availability
High
Availability (VA:H): total denial of service. attacker can fully shut down the resource.
