Improper Authorization in Intel Quick Assist Causes DoS

Publication date: 2026-02-10

Last updated on: 2026-02-10

Assigner: Intel Corporation

Description
Improper authorization in the Intel(R) Quick Assist Technology for some Intel(R) Platforms within Ring 0: Kernel may allow a denial of service. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable denial of service. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are not present with special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
