FAQ: According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to take additional actions prior to exploitation to prepare the target environment.
FAQ: According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?
An attacker must already have access and the ability to run code on the target system. This technique does not allow for remote code execution in cases where the attacker does not already have that ability on the target system.
