7.8
CVSS v3.1

Official Description

The certificate import component in IDEMIA (formerly Morpho) MorphoSmart 1300 Series (aka MSO 1300 Series) devices allows local users to obtain a command shell, and consequently gain privileges, via unspecified vectors. NOTE: the vendor disputes this because there is no command shell in the product or in the associated SDK

Technical Analysis

CVE-2017-15567 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.

Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.

A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 7.8.
