Should you decide to go down the 'low' route, I think your choice of 'susceptibility' is preferable to the thesaurus-sourced entry 'vulnerability'.
susceptibility: "The state ... of being ... liable to be influenced or harmed by a particular thing."

"The quality or state of being exposed to the possibility of being attacked or harmed, either physically or emotionally."
