#auth

**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 uninitialized memory.

**According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires the attacker to be able to send a malicious update package to the Defender for IoT sensor over the network. To do this, the attacker would first need to authenticate themselves and gain the necessary permissions to initiate the update process.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is Adjacent (AV:A), the attack complexity is high (AC:H) and the privileges required is high (PR:H). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker would need to have access to a proxy server created in the same or in an accessible network of the Appliance.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.

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

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** For successful exploitation, a malicious certificate needs to be imported on an affected system. An attacker could upload a certificate to a service that processes or imports certificates, or an attacker could convince an authenticated user to import a certificate on their system.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R) and privileges required are none (PR:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An unauthorized attacker must wait for a user to initiate a connection.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R) and privileges required are none (PR:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An unauthorized attacker must wait for a user to initiate a connection.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is physical (AV:P). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An unauthenticated attacker needs to physically connect a specially crafted USB device to exploit this vulnerability.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R) and privileges required are none (PR:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An unauthorized attacker must wait for a user to initiate a connection.
