CVE-2025-27711 Details
Description
Incorrect default permissions for some Intel(R) One Boot Flash Update (Intel(R) OFU) software before version 14.1.31 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires active user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
A privilege escalation vulnerability has been identified in Intel One Boot Flash Update (OFU) software versions prior to 14.1.31. The issue arises from incorrect default permissions that may allow an unprivileged, authenticated user to escalate privileges. This vulnerability could be exploited through a complex, high-effort attack requiring local access and active user interaction, potentially impacting the system's confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Intel has discontinued support for the OFU software as of April 4, 2025, and recommends users uninstall or stop using it as soon as possible.
