Local privilege escalation via inherited permissions
Published Nov 11, 2025 · Updated Nov 11, 2025
Privilege escalation in Intel Rapid Storage Technology Application before 20.0.1021 allows local users to execute code with elevated rights. The application allows certain Ring 3 resources to inherit permissions that are too broad, exposing privileged execution paths to lower-privileged software. Exploitation requires an authenticated local user, high attack complexity, present attack requirements, and active user interaction; Intel has not identified the affected resource.

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.
