**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a user to open a malicious email with an affected version of Microsoft Outlook and then perform specific actions to trigger the vulnerability.

**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.

**Is the Preview Pane an attack vector for this vulnerability?** Yes, the Preview Pane is an attack vector.

**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 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?** This vulnerability could be triggered when a user connects a Windows client to a malicious server.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** A user would have to restart the compromised service on the server to trigger the vulnerability.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploiting this vulnerability requires an attacker to be within proximity of the target system to send and receive radio transmissions.

**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.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploiting this vulnerability requires an attacker to be within proximity of the target system to send and receive radio transmissions.
