CVE-2025-20005

Improper buffer restrictions in some UEFI firmware for some Intel(R) reference platforms may allow an escalation of privilege. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a high complexity attack may enable data manipulation. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are not present without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (none), integrity (high) and availability (low) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

Summary		(es) Restricciones de búfer inadecuadas en algunos firmware UEFI para algunas plataformas de referencia Intel(R) pueden permitir una escalada de privilegios. Un adversario de software de sistema con un usuario privilegiado combinado con un ataque de alta complejidad puede permitir la manipulación de datos. Este resultado puede ocurrir potencialmente a través de acceso local cuando los requisitos de ataque no están presentes sin conocimiento interno especial y no requiere interacción del usuario. La vulnerabilidad potencial puede impactar la confidencialidad (ninguna), integridad (alta) y disponibilidad (baja) del sistema vulnerable, resultando en impactos subsiguientes en la confidencialidad (ninguna), integridad (ninguna) y disponibilidad (ninguna) del sistema.
