Impact	System access This covers vulnerabilities where malicious people are able to gain system access and execute arbitrary code with the privileges of a local user. Cross-Site Scripting Cross-Site Scripting vulnerabilities allow a third party to manipulate the content or behaviour of a web application in a user's browser, without compromising the underlying system. Different Cross-Site Scripting related vulnerabilities are also classified under this category, including "script insertion" and "cross-site request forgery". Cross-Site Scripting vulnerabilities are often used against specific users of a website to steal their credentials or to conduct spoofing attacks. Exposure of sensitive information Vulnerabilities where documents or credentials are leaked or can be revealed either locally or from remote. Exposure of system information Vulnerabilities where excessive information about the system (e.g. version numbers, running services, installation paths, and similar) are exposed and can be revealed from remote and in some cases locally. Security Bypass This covers vulnerabilities or security issues where malicious users or people can bypass certain security mechanisms of the application. The actual impact varies significantly depending on the design and purpose of the affected application. Spoofing This covers various vulnerabilities where it is possible for malicious users or people to impersonate other users or systems.
