Privilege escalation via undisclosed protection mechanism failure
Published Nov 14, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Protection mechanism failure in Intel oneAPI HPC Toolkit before 2023.1 and MPI Library before 2021.9 allows attackers to escalate privileges. Intel identifies only a protection mechanism failure and has not disclosed the affected component or the operation performed incorrectly on untrusted input. Exploitation requires a privileged user with adjacent access and can compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability, but Intel has not published a more specific outcome.
