CVE-2022-44612

Authenticated local information disclosure via hard-coded credentials

Published Aug 11, 2023 · Updated Oct 4, 2024

Hard-coded credentials in Intel Unison before 10.12 allow local users to read unspecified information through authenticated local access. Intel identifies embedded credentials as the cause but has not published their storage location, associated component, or the operation that exposes data. Exploitation requires low-privileged local access and no user interaction, and the documented consequence is limited to confidentiality.
