According to CVSS, what is a description of the attack vector score?

AThe metric score will be larger when it is easier to physically touch or manipulate the vulnerable component

BIt depends on how many physical and logical manipulations are possible on a vulnerable component

CThe metric score will be larger when a remote attack is more likely.

DIt depends on how far away the attacker is located and the vulnerable component

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

The attack vector score in the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) reflects how a vulnerability can be exploited.A higher score is given when the attack can be conducted remotely, making it easier for an attacker to exploit the vulnerability without physical access to the vulnerable component3.Reference:: The CVSS specification document provides a detailed explanation of how the attack vector score is determined, emphasizing the impact of the ease of exploitation on the score

B seems too vague. I prefer C - it directly addresses the key factor of remote access in the attack vector score.

Haha, choice A is like saying the score will be higher if you can literally touch the vulnerable part. That's a bit too literal, don't you think?

I think the correct answer is C. The CVSS attack vector metric score is higher when a remote attack is more likely, as it indicates a greater risk of exploitation.

I agree with Pearly, the score is larger when a remote attack is more likely.

I think the attack vector score depends on how likely a remote attack is.
