Intel® CSME, Intel® SPS, Intel® TXE, Intel® DAL, and Intel® AMT 2019.1 QSR Advisory

Intel ID:

INTEL-SA-00213

Advisory Category:

Firmware, Software

Impact of vulnerability:

Escalation of Privilege, Denial of Service, Information Disclosure

Severity rating:

HIGH

Original release:

05/14/2019

CVE-2022-35408: Insyde's Security Pledge | Insyde Software

An issue was discovered in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.0 through 5.5. An SMM callout vulnerability in the SMM driver in UsbLegacyControlSmm leads to possible arbitrary code execution in SMM and escalation of privileges. An attacker could overwrite the function pointers in the EFI_BOOT_SERVICES table before the USB SMI handler triggers. (This is not exploitable from code running in the operating system.)
