| Where |
From remote
"From remote" describes other vulnerabilities where the attack vector doesn't require access to the system or a local network.
This category covers services that are acceptable to expose to the Internet (e.g. HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP). It also covers client applications used on the Internet and certain vulnerabilities where it is reasonable to assume that a security conscious user can be tricked into performing certain actions.
|
| Impact |
DoS (Denial of Service)
This includes vulnerabilities ranging from excessive resource consumption (e.g. causing a system to use a lot of memory) to crashing an application or an entire system.
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.
