Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

Red Hat CVSS v3 Score Explanation
Prototype pollution attacks can take various forms with varying impacts, most commonly being denial of service, but under certain conditions, remote code execution flaws can occur. The typical condition required for RCE is specific attributes of objects being executed, which is not the case in this flaw. Thus, only the Availability affect is impacted here.
