Local privilege escalation via uncontrolled search path
Published Feb 12, 2025 · Updated Feb 18, 2025
Uncontrolled search path in Intel's FPGA Support Package before 2024.2 allows local users to escalate privileges on Windows. Intel has not disclosed the affected executable, loaded object, or search-order operation that resolves attacker-controlled content. Exploitation requires local low-privileged access, high complexity, additional attack conditions, and active user interaction, and can compromise host data and execution.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
