Assigner: Intel Corporation

Description
Uncontrolled search path for some Display Virtualization for Windows OS software before version 1797 within Ring 2: Device Drivers may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. 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.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is an uncontrolled search path issue in Display Virtualization software for Windows OS versions before 1797 within Ring 2 device drivers. It allows an unprivileged, authenticated user to potentially escalate their privileges on the system by exploiting the way the software searches for resources or files, requiring local access and active user interaction. The attack is considered high complexity and may impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to an escalation of privilege, meaning an attacker with limited access could gain higher-level permissions. This can compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system, potentially allowing unauthorized access, modification, or disruption of system resources.
