CVE-2026-20708Network attack vector

Privileged information disclosure via sensitive log entries

Published Aug 11, 2026 · Updated Aug 11, 2026

Information disclosure in Intel AMT and Intel Standard Manageability firmware allows remote authenticated users to expose sensitive data. The affected management subsystem writes sensitive information into a log file without preventing its disclosure through privileged network access. Exploitation requires a privileged user and a high-complexity network attack, requires no user interaction, and affects confidentiality only.
