Authenticated network privilege escalation
Published Nov 14, 2023 · Updated Aug 30, 2024
Improper input validation in Intel Unison allows remote authenticated users to escalate privileges through network access. Intel has not disclosed the affected component, accepted input, or validation operation, so the precise mechanism is not public. The required gate is authenticated network access; Intel reports privilege escalation but has not specified the resulting privilege level or protected actions.
