Local denial of service via improper access control
Published Feb 16, 2023 · Updated Jan 27, 2025
Improper access control in Intel System Usage Report before 2.4.8902 allows local users with authenticated access to cause denial of service. Intel identifies no affected file, service, function, request, or access-control decision, so the code-level mechanism is undisclosed. Low-privileged local access is required, and the documented consequence is limited to availability; Intel does not state whether the failure causes a hang, crash, reboot, or shutdown.
