Local privilege escalation via inherited permissions
Published Nov 13, 2024 · Updated Nov 14, 2024
Local privilege escalation in Intel Computing Improvement Program before 2.4.10852 allows local users to gain elevated privileges. An affected resource inherits insecure permissions, but Intel has not disclosed the resource, permission path, or operation that makes it exploitable. Exploitation requires existing low-privileged access, high-complexity conditions, and active user interaction; successful abuse grants elevated local privileges.
