CVE-2022-34849

Privileged service interruption via uncaught driver exception

Published Feb 16, 2023 · Updated Jan 27, 2025

Improper exception handling in Intel Iris Xe MAX drivers for Windows before 100.0.5.1436(v2) allows privileged local users to interrupt service. An uncaught exception terminates normal driver processing, but Intel has not disclosed the triggering input, code path, or whether the result is a crash or hang. High local privileges are required, and the published impact is limited to availability with no reported confidentiality or integrity loss.
