The supported version that is affected is 11.4. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle Solaris executes to compromise Oracle Solaris.  Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in  unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some of Oracle Solaris accessible data as well as  unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle Solaris accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Solaris. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 5.3 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts).
