It's Data Privacy Week so here are 10 tips from our VP of Consumer Privacy, Oren Arar, about how to stay private online.

**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 take additional actions prior to exploitation to prepare the target environment.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5607-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Chromium, which could result in the execution of arbitrary code, denial of service or information disclosure.

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Microsoft browsers allowing sandbox escape. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could use the sandbox escape to elevate privileges on an affected system. This vulnerability by itself does not allow arbitrary code execution; however, it could allow arbitrary code to be run if the attacker uses it in combination with another vulnerability (such as a remote code execution vulnerability or another elevation of privilege vulnerability) that is capable of leveraging the elevated privileges when code execution is attempted.

**According to the CVSS metric, a successful exploitation could lead to a scope change (S:C). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** This vulnerability could lead to a browser sandbox escape.

**Why is this Chrome CVE included in the Security Update Guide?** The vulnerability assigned to this CVE is in Chromium Open Source Software (OSS) which is consumed by Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based). It is being documented in the Security Update Guide to announce that the latest version of Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) is no longer vulnerable. **How can I see the version of the browser?** 1. In your Microsoft Edge browser, click on the 3 dots (...) on the very right-hand side of the window 2. Click on **Help and Feedback** 3. Click on **About Microsoft Edge**

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** An attacker must send the user a malicious file and convince them to open it.
