📋 Description

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.

Although the CVSS metric is local (AV:L), are there additional attack vectors? This vulnerability could also be exploited through a physical attack vector. An attacker with physical access to a vulnerable system could insert a specially crafted USB device into the machine.
