- Attack vector (AV:L)
- They already need access on the box, or another person has to do something wrong; it’s not a remote drive-by.
- Attack complexity (AC:H)
- Even with access, the exploit needs extra luck, timing, or a fussy environment to actually work.
- Privileges required (PR:L)
- A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
- User interaction (UI:N)
- Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
- Scope (S:C)
- Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
- Confidentiality (C:L)
- Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
- Integrity (I:L)
- Attackers could change some data, but it’s limited—not everything goes.
- Availability (A:N)
- Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
