Where (Attack Vector)
The following are Where (Attack Vector) values.
Local System
Local system describes vulnerabilities where the attack vector requires that the attacker is a local user on the system.
Local Network
From local network describes vulnerabilities where the attack vector requires that an attacker is situated on the same network as a vulnerable system (not necessarily a LAN).
This category covers vulnerabilities in certain services (for example, DHCP, RPC, administrative services, and so on), which should not be accessible from the Internet, but only from a local network and optionally a restricted set of external systems.
Remote
From remote describes vulnerabilities where the attack vector does not require access to the system nor a local network.
This category covers services, which are acceptable to expose to the Internet (for example, HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP) as well as client applications used on the Internet and certain vulnerabilities, where it is reasonable to assume that a security conscious user can be tricked into performing certain actions.
