Improper access control in the Intel(R) CSME software installer before version 2239.3.7.0 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Improper isolation of shared resources in some Intel(R) Processors may allow a privileged user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access.

A flaw was found in hw. In certain processors with Intel's Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation (eIBRS) capabilities, soon after VM exit or IBPB command event, the linear address following the most recent near CALL instruction prior to a VM exit may be used as the Return Stack Buffer (RSB) prediction.

Hardware debug modes and processor INIT setting that allow override of locks for some Intel(R) Processors in Intel(R) Boot Guard and Intel(R) TXT may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via physical access.

A flaw was found in hw. The Branch History Injection (BHI) describes a specific form of intra-mode BTI. This flaw allows an unprivileged attacker to manipulate the branch history before transitioning to supervisor or VMX root mode. This issue is an effort to cause an indirect branch predictor to select a specific predictor entry for an indirect branch, and a disclosure gadget at the predicted target will transiently execute. This execution is possible since the relevant branch history may contain branches taken in previous security contexts, and in particular, in other predictor modes.

A flaw was found in hw. The Intra-mode BTI refers to a variant of Branch Target Injection aka SpectreV2 (BTI) where an indirect branch speculates to an aliased predictor entry for a different indirect branch in the same predictor mode, and a disclosure gadget at the predicted target transiently executes. These predictor entries may contain targets corresponding to the targets of an indirect near jump, indirect near call, and near return instructions, even if these branches were only transiently executed. The managed runtimes provide an attacker with the means to create the aliasing required for intra-mode BTI attacks.

Race condition in the firmware for some Intel(R) Processors may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Improper initialization in the firmware for some Intel(R) Processors may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Out of bound read in a subsystem in the Intel(R) CSME versions before 12.0.81, 13.0.47, 13.30.17, 14.1.53 and 14.5.32 may allow a privileged user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access.

Improper buffer restrictions in a subsystem in the Intel(R) CSME versions before 11.8.86, 11.12.86, 11.22.86, 12.0.81, 13.0.47, 13.30.17, 14.1.53, 14.5.32 and 15.0.22 may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Modification of assumed-immutable data in subsystem in Intel(R) CSME versions before 13.0.47, 13.30.17, 14.1.53, 14.5.32, 15.0.22 may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via physical access.

Improper initialization in a subsystem in the Intel(R) CSME versions before 11.8.86, 11.12.86, 11.22.86, 12.0.81, 13.0.47, 13.30.17, 14.1.53, 14.5.32, 13.50.11 and 15.0.22 may allow a privileged user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access.

A potential domain bypass transient execution vulnerability was discovered on some Intel Atom® processors that uses a microarchitectural incidental channel. Currently this channel can reveal supervisor data in the L1 cache and the contents of recent stores. As a consequence, this issue may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access.

A flaw was found in Intel® VT-d products. Entries from the context cache on some types of context cache invalidations may not be properly invalidated which may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

Improper buffer restrictions in BIOS firmware for some Intel(R) Processors may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.
