🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1203Exploitation for Client Executionexecution85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution80 % - Impacto secundario
T1005Data from Local Systemcollection60 %
ChakraCore RCE por corrupción de memoria requiere interacción del usuario (UI:R). Vector AV:N con AC:H y UI:R indica explotación en cliente. La corrupción permite ejecución de código arbitrario y acceso a datos en memoria.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
