Privileged denial of service via input validation
Published Jun 9, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Improper input validation in Intel Security Libraries for Data Center before 3.3 allows privileged users to cause denial of service via network access. An API accepts improperly validated network input, allowing crafted requests to drive the service into a denial-of-service condition. Reaching the condition requires privileged access to the network-facing API, and the documented consequence is service interruption rather than data disclosure or modification.
