CVE-2024-41167

Local privilege escalation through improper UEFI input validation

Published Nov 13, 2024 · Updated Nov 14, 2024

Improper input validation in Intel Server Board M10JNP2SB UEFI firmware allows local users to escalate privileges. Intel identifies the UEFI firmware as the affected locus but has not published the malformed input, parser, or validation operation involved. Exploitation requires existing high privileges, local access, high complexity, and additional attack conditions; success can compromise the firmware and subsequent system components.
