6.5
CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Condor 6.5.4 through 7.2.4, 7.3.x, and 7.4.0, as used in MRG, Grid for MRG, and Grid Execute Node for MRG, allows remote authenticated users to queue jobs as an arbitrary user, and thereby gain privileges, by using a Condor command-line tool to modify an unspecified job attribute.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2009-4133 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
