**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L) while user interaction is required (UI:R). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker can trick a local user on a vulnerable system into mounting a specially crafted VHD that would then trigger the vulnerability.
**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 prepare the target environment to improve exploit reliability.
Improper neutralization of special elements used in an sql command ('sql injection') in Microsoft Configuration Manager allows an authorized attacker to execute code over an adjacent network.
Buffer over-read in Virtual Hard Disk (VHDX) allows an unauthorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Microsoft Input Method Editor (IME) allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.
**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.
Out-of-bounds read in Microsoft Input Method Editor (IME) allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Graphics Component allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Microsoft PC Manager allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
**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.
