#Security Vulnerability

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker with normal privileges could send a modified XPS file to a shared printer, which can result in a remote code execution.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker with normal privileges could send a modified XPS file to a shared printer, which can result in a remote code execution.

**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 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, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** An attacker would have to send the victim a malicious file that the victim would have to execute.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** A user needs to be tricked into running malicious files.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application that could exploit the vulnerability and take control of an affected system. Additionally, an attacker could convince a local user to open a malicious file. The attacker would have to convince the user to click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an email or instant message, and then convince them to open the specially crafted file.

**According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** The attacker must be authenticated and possess the permissions for page creation to be able to exploit this vulnerability.
