FAQ

According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does that mean for this vulnerability? Exploiting this vulnerability requires an attacker to be within proximity of the target system to send and receive radio transmissions. How could an attacker exploit the vulnerability? An unauthenticated attacker could send a malicious networking packet to an adjacent system where a user is running the Network Map functionality over a WiFi networking adapter, which could enable remote code execution.
