Service interruption via unquoted service path
Published Mar 12, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Unquoted service-path handling in affected Intel Graphics Drivers for Windows allows local users to interrupt the graphics service. A Windows service entry stores its executable path without enclosing a whitespace-containing path in quotation marks, so startup can resolve an unintended executable from a parent directory. Exploitation requires local authenticated administrative access, and the published impact is limited to denial of service.
