Alleged WWH Club admins have been charged with cyberfraud in the US after they gained attention by spending large amounts of money.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** A cross-site scripting vulnerability existed in virtual public IP address that impacted related endpoints. For more information on the impacted virtual public IP address, see here: What is IP address 168.63.129.16? | Microsoft Learn. An unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by getting the victim to load malicious code into their web browser on the virtual machine, allowing the attacker to leverage an implicit identity of the virtual machine. The victim's web browser then would determine which host endpoints are accessible.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and the user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution?** This attack requires an authenticated client to click a link in order for an unauthenticated attacker to initiate remote code execution.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is physical (AV:P). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** To exploit this vulnerability, an unauthenticated attacker needs to physically connect a malicious USB device to the victim's machine

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker with permissions to execute commands on the Azure CycleCloud instance could send a specially crafted request that returns the storage account credentials and runtime data. The attacker can then use the comprised credentials to access the underlying storage resources and upload malicious scripts which will be executed as Root, enabling remote code execution to be performed on any cluster in the CycleCloud instance.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could create or delete files in the security context of the NT AUTHORITY\\ SYSTEM account.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An unauthenticated attacker could exploit the vulnerability by interacting with a malicious wireless network from the lock screen of a device. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability does not crash systems or allow unauthorized access. However, it can potentially leak sensitive information.

**According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Any authenticated attacker could trigger this vulnerability. It does not require admin or other elevated privileges.

**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could potentially read small portions of stack memory.

**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could potentially read small portions of stack memory.
