CVE-2023-41092

Authenticated denial of service via unchecked return

Published May 16, 2024 · Updated Aug 21, 2024

Unchecked return handling in Intel Stratix 10 and Agilex 7 SDM firmware before 23.3 allows remote authenticated users to cause denial of service. The firmware fails to validate the return from an unspecified SDM operation before continuing; Intel has not disclosed the operation or resulting failure path. Exploitation requires authenticated adjacent access to the FPGA and can interrupt its operation; no network or physical attack path is reported.
