CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Buffer overflow in an unspecified function in nsr_render_log in EMC NetWorker before 8.0.4.3, 8.1.x before 8.1.2.6, and 8.2.x before 8.2.1.2 allows local users to gain privileges via unknown vectors.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2015-0530 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-119): Buffer overflow vulnerabilities can lead to arbitrary code execution or denial of service by corrupting adjacent memory.
