Estado: ModificadaAlta (8.8)—

Privilege escalation in the WebRTC: Audio/Video component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 151 and Thunderbird 151.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

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.

AV:N, UI:R sin acceso local indican ejecución en el cliente que requiere interacción; WebRTC en Firefox/Thunderbird típicamente implica escalada de privilegios local.

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.
