- AutomatableyesAn attacker can reliably automate reconnaissance through exploitation, so this scales.
- Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.
- EPSS probability
- 0.59% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Equal to or higher than the score of 48.4% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
