It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-12927 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: AMD VBIOS Flash Tool SDK. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-12927/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-12927/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-12927","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-12927/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-12927","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wppc-2hf4-hh9j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"AMD VBIOS Flash Tool SDK","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated user can escalate privileges to NT authority system via a vulnerability in the AMD VBIOS Flash Tool SDK.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"AMD","cpe":[{"product":"vbios_flash_tool_software_development_kit","vendor":"amd"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-749","name":"Exposed Dangerous Method or Function"}],"description":"A potential vulnerability in a dynamically loaded AMD driver in AMD VBIOS Flash Tool SDK may allow any authenticated user to escalate privileges to NT authority system.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in AMD VBIOS Flash Tool SDK","id":"CVE-2020-12927","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in AMD Ryzen Master","id":"CVE-2020-12928"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Race condition in AMD's fTPM implementation","id":"CVE-2020-12926"},"products":["AMD VBIOS Flash Tool SDK"],"published":"2020-11-12","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An authenticated user can escalate privileges to NT authority system via a vulnerability in the AMD VBIOS Flash Tool SDK.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-12927/"}
