CVE-2025-24512

Authenticated service interruption via unvalidated driver input

Published Nov 11, 2025 · Updated Nov 11, 2025

Improper input validation in Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software for Windows before 23.160 allows local users to cause a service interrupt. Intel has not published the exact Ring 2 driver locus, the input accepted there, or the incorrect operation performed on that input. Exploitation requires an authenticated low-privileged local user, high attack complexity, attack requirements, and special internal knowledge, but no user interaction.
