How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached from an adjacent network, attack complexity is high, an attacker needs no privileges on the target. A user must be tricked into taking some action. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity high, availability high.

CVSS metrics in full

The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

• Attack vector: Adjacent network — the attacker has to sit on the same local or logical network.

• Privileges required: None — an unauthenticated stranger can try it.
• User interaction: Required — someone has to click, open or visit something.
• Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
• Confidentiality impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
• Integrity impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
• Availability impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
