**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. This means an attacker or victim needs to execute code from the local machine to exploit the vulnerability.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. For example, when the score indicates that the **Attack Vector** is **Local** and **User Interaction** is **Required**, this could describe an exploit in which an attacker, through social engineering, convinces a victim to download and open a specially crafted file from a website which leads to a local attack on their computer.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** For an attacker to exploit this vulnerability, they would need to have knowledge of a specific operation that triggers a memory allocation failure, specifically a use after free.

**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 admin user on the client to connect to a malicious server, and that could allow the attacker to gain code execution on the client.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user into sending a request to a malicious server. This could result in the server returning malicious data that might cause arbitrary code execution on the user's system.

****How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?****

**The following mitigating factors might be helpful in your situation:** This vulnerability is only exploitable only if there is a program listening on a Pragmatic General Multicast (PGM) port. If PGM is installed or enabled but no programs are actively listening as a receiver, then this vulnerability is not exploitable. PGM does not authenticate requests so it is recommended to protect access to any open ports at the network level (e.g. with a firewall). It is not recommended to expose a PGM receiver to the public internet.

Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Apache DolphinScheduler. An authenticated user can cause arbitrary, unsandboxed javascript to be executed on the server. If you are using the switch task plugin, please upgrade to version 3.2.2.

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202408-28 - A vulnerability has been discovered in rsyslog, which could possibly lead to remote code execution. Versions greater than or equal to 8.2206.0 are affected.

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202408-24 - A vulnerability has been discovered in Ruby on Rails, which can lead to remote code execution via serialization of data. Versions greater than or equal to 6.1.6.1:6.1 are affected.
