CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.3
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.75%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 53
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
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).
🎯 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
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation90 % - Impacto secundario
T1574.007Path Interception by PATH Environment Variablestealth · execution75 %
AV:L + UI:R + PR:L indica ejecución en cliente (abrir archivo preparado). CWE-427 (search path) permite escalada de privilegios local (T1068). El hijacking de bibliotecas (T1574.007) es el mecanismo secundario.
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.
