Executive Summary

This vulnerability involves certain Arm processors, including models such as C1-Ultra, C1-Premium, Neoverse V3 & V3AE, Neoverse V2, Neoverse V1, Neoverse-N2, Neoverse-N1, Cortex-X925, Cortex-X4, Cortex-X3, Cortex-X2, Cortex-X1 & X1C, Cortex-A710, Cortex-A78, A78AE & A78C, Cortex-A77, Cortex-A76 & A76A. It may allow unauthorized writes to resources that are owned by a higher exception level, which means that lower privilege levels could potentially modify data or settings that should be protected.

Impact Analysis

If exploited, this vulnerability could allow an attacker or malicious software running at a lower privilege level to write to resources that are normally protected and accessible only by higher privilege levels. This could lead to unauthorized modification of critical system data or control structures, potentially compromising system integrity, security, and stability.
