CVSS v3.1
Official Description
An attacker who obtains access to the location where the LXCA file system is stored may be able to access credentials of local LXCA accounts in LXCA versions earlier than 1.3.2.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2017-3763 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires high 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 6.7.
