#Remote Desktop Client

**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.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker must trick the user into interacting with a spoofed WebAuthn prompt and entering their credentials.

Out-of-bounds read in Remote Desktop Client allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information over a network.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Remote Desktop Client allows an authorized attacker to execute code over a network.

**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 authenticated attacker could exploit the vulnerability by triggering remote code execution (RCE) on the server via a Remote Desktop connection. Alternatively, an authenticated attacker could trigger guest-to-host RCE via a malicious program by connecting to the host using MMC.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** In the case of a Remote Desktop connection, an attacker with control of a Remote Desktop Server could trigger a remote code execution (RCE) on the RDP client machine when a victim connects to the attacking server with the vulnerable Remote Desktop Client.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** In the case of a Remote Desktop connection, an attacker with control of a Remote Desktop Server could trigger a remote code execution (RCE) on the RDP client machine when a victim connects to the attacking server with the vulnerable Remote Desktop Client.

**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 win a race condition.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** In the case of a Remote Desktop connection, an attacker with control of a Remote Desktop Server could trigger a remote code execution (RCE) on the RDP client machine when a victim connects to the attacking server with the vulnerable Remote Desktop Client.
