Deeper analysis

CVE-2023-23395 is a spoofing vulnerability in Microsoft SharePoint Server, assigned CWE-601 for URL redirection to an untrusted site. It carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.1 reflecting network attack vector, high attack complexity, no required privileges, and required user interaction, resulting in limited integrity impact with no confidentiality or availability effects.
