**According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is high (PR:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires the attacker or targeted user to have specific elevated DHCP Server privileges. As is best practice, regular validation and audits of administrative groups should be conducted.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R) and privileges required  is low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An authorized attacker with standard user privileges could place a malicious file and then wait for the privileged victim to run the calling command.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to gather information specific to the environment and take additional actions prior to exploitation to prepare the target environment.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability with LAN access.

**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 gain high privileges, which include read, write, and delete functionality.

**Is the Preview Pane an attack vector for this vulnerability?** No, the Preview Pane is not an attack vector.

**What kind of security feature could be bypassed by successfully exploiting this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could bypass Secure Boot.

**What kind of security feature could be bypassed by successfully exploiting this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could bypass Secure Boot.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to gather information specific to the environment and take additional actions prior to exploitation to prepare the target environment.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An unauthenticated attacker with LAN access could exploit this vulnerability.
