Code execution via Intel Graphics Driver bounds write
Published May 26, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
An out-of-bounds write in Apple macOS Intel Graphics Driver allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malicious web content. The driver accepts crafted graphics data without sufficient bounds validation, enabling memory corruption during rendering. Exploitation requires a victim to process attacker-controlled web content; successful exploitation can execute code in the affected process context.
