- Attack vector (AV:N)
- Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
- Attack complexity (AC:H)
- Even with access, the exploit needs extra luck, timing, or a fussy environment to actually work.
- Privileges required (PR:N)
- No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.
- User interaction (UI:R)
- A real person has to do something—click, install, enable—otherwise it doesn’t land.
- Scope (S:C)
- Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
- Confidentiality (C:H)
- Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
- Integrity (I:H)
- They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
- Availability (A:N)
- Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
