CVSS Scores
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System is a standardized framework for assessing the severity of vulnerabilities in software and systems. We collect and displays CVSS scores from various sources for each CVE.
Score Version Severity Vector Exploitability Score Impact Score Source
CVSS 3.1 LOW b58fc414-a1e4-4f92-9d70-1add41838648
CVSS 3.1 LOW [email protected]
Solution
Address privilege escalation by validating access controls for TMR modification.
  • Validate authorization for modifying Translation Map Registers.
  • Implement stricter access controls for privileged operations.
  • Apply security updates from the vendor.
  • Review system access logs for suspicious activity.
