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-2020-8736 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program Advisory. 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-2020-8736/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8736/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-8736","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8736/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-8736","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3225-53wc-82w5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Computing Improvement Program","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges due to improper access control in the Intel Computing Improvement Program subsystem.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[{"product":"computing_improvement_program","vendor":"intel"}],"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":[],"description":"Improper access control in subsystem for the Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program before version 2.4.5718 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.","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 Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program Advisory","id":"CVE-2020-8736","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":"Memory corruption in Intel(R) Stratix(R) 10 FPGA firmware provided with the Intel(R) Quartus(R) Prime Pro software","id":"CVE-2020-8737"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2020-8735"},"products":["Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program Advisory"],"published":"2020-08-13","related":[{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) CIP software","id":"CVE-2025-24299","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program","id":"CVE-2021-0052","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program software","id":"CVE-2021-0074","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program Advisory","id":"CVE-2019-11162","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-19"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program","id":"CVE-2018-12168","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-09-12"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) CIP software","id":"CVE-2025-24838","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-11"}],"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":"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 local user can escalate privileges due to improper access control in the Intel Computing Improvement Program subsystem.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8736/"}
