#Security Vulnerability
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** To exploit this vulnerability, a victim machine must be running a performance counter collection tool such as Performance Monitor to collect performance counter data from an attacker machine. An attacker with local admin authority on the attacker machine could run malicious code remotely in the victim machine's performance counter data collector process.
**According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is low (PR:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker with Site Owner permissions can use the vulnerability to inject arbitrary code and execute this code in the context of SharePoint Server.
**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.
**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.
**How would an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An unauthenticated attacker could connect to the Remote Desktop Licensing Service and send a malicious message which could allow remote code execution.
**According to the CVSS metric, successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to total loss of availability (A:H)? What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker could impact availability of the service resulting in Denial of Service (DoS).
**According to the CVSS metric, successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to total loss of availability (A:H)? What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker could impact availability of the service resulting in Denial of Service (DoS).
**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could potentially read small portions of heap memory.
**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.
**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could elevate their user privileges from those of a restrained user to an unrestrained WDAC user.
