**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability?** The attacker, initially a non-admin user on the host, could hijack the PowerShell Direct session intended for communication between the admin user on host and a guest VM. This unauthorized access enables the attacker to impersonate the admin host user in communications with the guest, potentially manipulating or controlling guest-side operations.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N), user interaction is required (UI:R), and privileges required are none (PR:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires an unauthorized attacker to wait for a user to initiate a connection to a malicious server that the attacker has set up prior to the user connecting.

Buffer over-read in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an authorized attacker to disclose information over a network.

Use after free in Windows Connected Devices Platform Service allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N), user interaction is required (UI:R), and privileges required are low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires an authorized attacker on the domain to wait for a user to initiate a connection to a malicious server that the attacker has set up prior to the user connecting.
