Risk Factor Key:

     High Any vulnerability that provides an attacker with immediate
              access into a machine, gains superuser access, or bypasses
              a firewall. Example: A vulnerable Sendmail 8.6.5 version
              that allows an intruder to execute commands on mail server.
     Medium Any vulnerability that provides information that has a high
              potential of giving system access to an intruder. Example:
              A misconfigured TFTP or vulnerable NIS server that allows
              an intruder to get the password file that could contain an
              account with a guessable password.
     Low Any vulnerability that provides information that could
              potentially lead to a compromise. Example: A finger that
              allows an intruder to find out who is online and potential
              accounts to attempt to crack passwords via brute force
              methods.
