Exploitability The following table provides an exploitability assessment for this vulnerability at the time of original publication. Publicly disclosed No Exploited No Exploitability assessment Exploitation Less Likely FAQ What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability If the attacker has both the ability to modify the encrypted secret where it is stored and to observe the precise timing for the secret being decrypted by the application, the attacker could infer the original secret across many decryption attempts. According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would need to target an application by persisting encrypted secrets that are using specific old cryptography and Windows APIs.
