- Attack vector (AV:A)
- Attacker has to be nearby on the network—same office, same link, that vibe—not the whole wide internet.
- 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: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:H)
- Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
- 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.
