BaseFortify

Publication date: 2025-11-11

Last updated on: 2025-11-11

Assigner: Intel Corporation

Description
Improper input validation for some Intel VTune Profiler before version 2025.1 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable data manipulation. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are not present without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (none), integrity (low) and availability (low) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability is due to improper input validation in Intel VTune Profiler versions before 2025.1. It allows an unprivileged, authenticated user to escalate privileges through a low complexity local attack without requiring special internal knowledge or user interaction. The vulnerability affects user applications running in Ring 3 and may enable data manipulation.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

The vulnerability may impact the integrity and availability of the vulnerable system at a low level, potentially allowing data manipulation. However, it does not affect confidentiality. The overall impact is limited to low severity with no direct impact on system confidentiality, integrity, or availability beyond the initial low-level effects.
