**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N), user interaction is required (UI:R), and privileges required are none (PR:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires an unauthorized attacker to wait for a user to initiate a connection to a malicious server that the attacker has set up prior to the user connecting.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.

**According to the CVSS metric, attack vector is (AV:N) and user interaction is none (UI:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** This can happen without user intervention. An attacker can use an uninitialized function pointer being called when decoding a JPEG image. This can be embedded in Office and 3rd party documents/files

Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an authorized attacker to execute code locally.

Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Windows SMB allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires that a user trigger the payload in the application.

Deserialization of untrusted data in Visual Studio allows an authorized attacker to execute code locally.

**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.
