#Security Vulnerability
**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** The type of information that could be disclosed if an attacker successfully exploited this vulnerability is the contents of Kernel memory. An attacker could read the contents of Kernel memory from a user mode process.
**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** The type of information that could be disclosed if an attacker successfully exploited this vulnerability is unauthorized file system access - reading from the file system.
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker could send a specially crafted request to a vulnerable LDAP server. Successful exploitation could result in the attacker's code running in the context of the SYSTEM account.
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** This vulnerability could be exploited over the network by an authenticated normal user through a low complexity attack on a server configured as the domain controller.
**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 win a race condition.
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker could send a specially crafted request to a vulnerable LDAP server. Successful exploitation could result in the attacker's code running in the context of the SYSTEM account.
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker could send a specially crafted request to a vulnerable LDAP server. Successful exploitation could result in the attacker's code running in the context of the SYSTEM account.
**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user open a specially crafted file. * In an email attack scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending the specially crafted file to the user and convincing the user to open the file. * In a web-based attack scenario, an attacker could host a website (or leverage a compromised website that accepts or hosts user-provided content) containing a specially crafted file designed to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker would have no way to force users to visit the website. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an email or instant message, and then convince them to open the specially crafted file.
**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** The type of information that could be disclosed if an attacker successfully exploited this vulnerability is memory layout - the vulnerability allows an attacker to collect information that facilitates predicting addressing of the memory.
**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user import a specially crafted contact record and sends it a FAX.
