The list uses the assigner's score when there is one, then CISA's, then NVD's: High 8.2.
Weakness
- The theoretical impact of this vulnerability is that the attacker can execute scripts on the affected system of the victim that will execute with the privileges of the victim. If the victim has administrative privileges the attacker's injected scripts would allow the attacker to access all files, stop/start some services and change limited configuration settings.
