Authentication(Au) Multiple (M) Single (S) None (N) Authentication is not required to exploit the vulnerability.
Confidentiality Impact(C) None (N) Partial (P) Complete (C) There is total information disclosure, resulting in all system files being revealed.
Integrity Impact(I) None (N) Partial (P) Complete (C) There is a total compromise of system integrity. There is a complete loss of system protection, resulting in the entire system being compromised.
Availability Impact(A) None (N) Partial (P) Complete (C) There is a total shutdown of the affected resource.
