**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.
**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. This means an attacker or victim needs to execute code from the local machine to exploit the vulnerability.
**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.
**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.
