- →Attack vector is a specially crafted RPC call sent to an RPC host by an authenticated (low-privilege) user, resulting in remote code execution on the server side with the same permissions as the RPC service. ↗
- →Any authenticated (non-admin) user can trigger this vulnerability — monitor for anomalous or malformed RPC calls originating from low-privilege accounts. ↗
- ·Exploit status is currently assessed as 'Exploitation Less Likely' with no public exploit or known in-the-wild exploitation at time of advisory publication. ↗
