CVE-2024-24983Network attack vector

Unauthenticated service interruption via firmware protection failure

Published Aug 14, 2024 · Updated Aug 14, 2024

Protection mechanism failure in Intel E810 adapter firmware before 4.4 allows remote attackers to interrupt network service. Intel has not disclosed which firmware protection mechanism fails or how crafted network traffic reaches the defective path. Unauthenticated network access is sufficient, and successful exploitation disrupts availability while also causing limited integrity impact.
