🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1203Exploitation for Client Executionexecution75 %
Buffer overflow en Flash requiere interacción del usuario (UI:R) para abrir archivo malicioso. Posibilita ejecución de código arbitrario en contexto del usuario con máximos privilegios de confidencialidad, integridad y disponibilidad.
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.
