CVE-2016-6253
Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—💥 Exploit
mail.local en NetBSD en versiones desde 6.0 hasta la versión 6.0.6, 6.1 hasta la versión 6.1.5 y 7.0 permite a usuarios locales cambiar la propiedad o anexar datos a archivos arbitrarios en el sistema objetivo a través de un ataque de enlace simbólico en el buzón de usuario.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 3.56%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 89
- Fecha de la puntuación: 8/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
💥 Exploits públicos
Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
