CVE-2024-37025

Local privilege escalation through installer permissions

Published Nov 13, 2024 · Updated Nov 14, 2024

Incorrect installer permissions in Intel Advanced Link Analyzer Standard Edition before 23.1.1 allow local users to escalate privileges. Intel identifies execution-assigned permissions as the flaw but has not disclosed the affected installer object or incorrect permission-setting operation. The attack requires low-privileged local access, high complexity, a present attack condition, and user interaction; successful exploitation grants elevated privileges.
