**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** The user would have to click on a specially crafted URL to be compromised by the attacker.
**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N), attack complexity is low (AC:L), and privilege required is low (PR:L). What is the target used in the context of the remote code execution?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to have Queue Build permissions on an Azure DevOps pipeline that has an overridable variable. An attacker with these permissions could perform remote code execution (RCE) by performing a malicious input injection via a runtime parameter that could be used in place of the overridable variable.
**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain Cluster Administrator privileges.
**Why is this AutoDesk CVE included in the Security Update Guide?** The vulnerability assigned to this CVE is in AutoDesk software which is consumed by the Microsoft products listed in the Security Updates table. It is being documented in the Security Update Guide to announce that the latest builds of these products are no longer vulnerable. Please see Security Update Guide Supports CVEs Assigned by Industry Partners for more information.
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** In a network-based attack, an attacker could trigger malicious code in the context of the server's account through a network call.
**According to the CVSS metric, successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to total loss of confidentiality (C:H), integrity (I:H), and availability (A:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploits this vulnerability could perform a remote attack that could enable access to the victim's information and the ability to alter information. Successful exploitation could also potentially cause downtime for the targeted environment.
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** In a network-based attack, an attacker could trigger malicious code in the context of the server's account through a network call.
**According to the CVSS metrics, successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to major loss of confidentiality (C:H), integrity (I:H) and availability (A:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could access a user's Net-NTLMv2 hash which could be used as a basis of an NTLM Relay attack against another service to authenticate as the user.
**Is the Preview Pane an attack vector for this vulnerability?** No, the Preview Pane is not an attack vector.
**Is the Preview Pane an attack vector for this vulnerability?** No, the Preview Pane is not an attack vector.
