Measures Severity Description
Access Vector(AV) Local (L) Adjacent Network (A) Network (N) A vulnerability exploitable with adjacent network access requires the attacker to have access to either the broadcast or collision domain of the vulnerable software.
Access Complexity(AC) High (H) Medium (M) Low (L) Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist.
Authentication(Au) Multiple (M) Single (S) None (N) The vulnerability requires an attacker to be logged into the system (such as at a command line or via a desktop session or web interface).
Confidentiality Impact(C) None (N) Partial (P) Complete (C) There is considerable informational disclosure. Access to some system files is possible, but the attacker does not have control over what is obtained, or the scope of the loss is constrained.
Integrity Impact(I) None (N) Partial (P) Complete (C) Modification of some system files or information is possible, but the attacker does not have control over what can be modified, or the scope of what the attacker can affect is limited.
