Unknown Unknown - Not Provided
BaseFortify

Publication date: 2025-11-11

Last updated on: 2025-11-26

Assigner: Intel Corporation

Description
Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) CIP software before version WIN_DCA_2.4.0.11001 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable local code execution. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires active user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability is an uncontrolled search path issue in some Intel(R) CIP software versions before WIN_DCA_2.4.0.11001. It occurs within Ring 3 (User Applications) and may allow an escalation of privilege. An unprivileged attacker with authenticated user access and the ability to perform a high complexity attack could potentially execute local code by exploiting this vulnerability. It requires local access and active user interaction, but does not require special internal knowledge.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

The vulnerability can impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the vulnerable system at a high level. This means an attacker could potentially gain unauthorized access, modify data, or disrupt system operations. However, the description notes that subsequent impacts on system confidentiality, integrity, and availability are none, indicating that the initial impact is high but may not propagate further.
