  3. What are the attacks that target this vulnerability?
  4. What are the technical impacts of this vulnerability?


Risk Factors

  • Talk about the factors that make this vulnerability likely or unlikely to actually happen
  • Discuss the technical impact of a successful exploit of this vulnerability
  • Consider the likely [business impacts] of a successful attack
