Received Received - Intake
Information Disclosure in Intel UEFI PdaSmm Module on Reference Platforms

Publication date: 2026-03-10

Last updated on: 2026-03-10

Assigner: Intel Corporation

Description
Exposure of resource to wrong sphere in the UEFI PdaSmm module for some Intel(R) reference platforms may allow an information disclosure. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a high complexity attack may enable data exposure. 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 (high), integrity (none) and availability (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability involves the exposure of a resource to the wrong sphere within the UEFI PdaSmm module on some Intel reference platforms. It may allow an information disclosure if exploited.

An attacker with privileged system software access and the ability to perform a high complexity attack could potentially expose sensitive data. The attack requires local access, special internal knowledge, and no user interaction.

The vulnerability primarily impacts the confidentiality of the system, with no effect on integrity or availability.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can lead to the exposure of sensitive information on affected systems.

Since it impacts confidentiality, an attacker with privileged access and sufficient knowledge could access data that should remain protected.

There is no impact on system integrity or availability, so the system's operation and data correctness remain unaffected.
