CVE-2024-28047

Privileged information disclosure via undisclosed UEFI validation flaw

Published Feb 12, 2025 · Updated Nov 3, 2025

Improper input validation in Intel processor UEFI firmware allows local users with elevated privileges to disclose protected information. Intel has not disclosed the affected parser, data structure, input source, or validation error within the firmware. Exploitation requires local access, high privileges, and specific execution conditions; the published impact is disclosure across a security boundary, with no integrity or availability impact.
