**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, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** The attacker must inject themselves into the logical network path between the target and the resource requested by the victim to read or modify network communications. This is called a machine-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is physical (AV:P). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** To exploit this vulnerability, an unauthenticated attacker needs to physically connect a malicious USB device to the victim's machine.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** To exploit this vulnerability, an authenticated attacker would need to run a specially crafted application on the target system exploit the vulnerability to elevate their privileges to a Medium Integrity Level.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and the user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution?** This attack requires a client to connect to a malicious server, and that could allow the attacker to gain code execution on the client.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and the user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution?** This attack requires a client to connect to a malicious server, and that could allow the attacker to gain code execution on the client.

**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An unauthenticated attacker could use a specially crafted application to leverage a cryptographic protocol vulnerability in Windows Kerberos to perform remote code execution against the target.

**According to the CVSS metric, successful exploitation could lead to a scope change (S:C). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could potentially execute a cross-VM attack, thereby compromising multiple virtual machines and expanding the impact of the attack beyond the initially targeted VM.
