CVE-2013-6744: The Stored Procedure infrastructure in IBM DB2 9.5, 9.7 before FP9a, 10.1 before FP3a, and 10.5 before FP3a on Windows allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges by leveraging the CONNECT privilege and the CREATE_EXTERNAL_ROUTINE authority.
The exploitability of CVE-2013-6744 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).
The exploitability of CVE-2013-6744 is uncertain due to missing or unclear data.
A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.
Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.
Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.
Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2013-6744, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2013-6744, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
The EPSS score estimates the probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the near future.
EPSS Score: 0.349% (probability of exploit)
EPSS Percentile: 72.07%
(lower percentile = lower relative risk)
