**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by tricking an authenticated user (CVSS metric UI:R) into attempting to connect to a malicious SQL server via a connection driver (for example: ODBC and / or OLEDB as applicable).

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by tricking an authenticated user (CVSS metric UI:R) into attempting to connect to a malicious SQL server via a connection driver (for example: ODBC and / or OLEDB as applicable).

**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, 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.

**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, 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, 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.
