Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-02-10 17:16 - Updated: 2026-02-10 21:51
Severity ?
Summary
Missing protection mechanism for alternate hardware interface in the Intel(R) Quick Assist Technology for some Intel(R) Platforms within Ring 0: Kernel may allow an escalation of privilege. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a low complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present with special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

"value": "Mecanismo de protecci\u00f3n faltante para interfaz de hardware alternativa en la Tecnolog\u00eda Intel(R) Quick Assist para algunas plataformas Intel(R) dentro de Ring 0: el kernel puede permitir una escalada de privilegios. Un adversario de software del sistema con un usuario privilegiado combinado con un ataque de baja complejidad puede permitir la escalada de privilegios. Este resultado puede ocurrir potencialmente a trav\u00e9s de acceso local cuando los requisitos de ataque est\u00e1n presentes con conocimiento interno especial y no requiere interacci\u00f3n del usuario. La potencial vulnerabilidad puede impactar la confidencialidad (alta), integridad (alta) y disponibilidad (ninguna) del sistema vulnerable, resultando en impactos subsiguientes en la confidencialidad (ninguna), integridad (ninguna) y disponibilidad (ninguna) del sistema."
