**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, privileges required is high (PR:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires the attacker to be an administrator of the web application. As is best practice, regular validation and audits of administrative groups should be conducted.

**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.

**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.

**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.

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, 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, 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.
