CVE-1999-0577
HighExploitation Probability (EPSS)
Very high risk93th percentile - higher than 93% of all known CVEs
Summary
A Windows NT system's file audit policy does not log an event success or failure for non-critical files or directories.
Risk Assessment
The lack of event logging may lead to the loss of monitoring access to important data, increasing the risk of unauthorized access.
Recommendation
It is recommended to configure the audit policy to log events for all files and directories to ensure better oversight of data access.
