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-2020-8743 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Mailbox Interface driver 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-2020-8743/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8743/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-8743","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8743/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-8743","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rj52-34h2-2r62"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Mailbox Interface driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges due to improper permissions in the Intel Mailbox Interface driver installer.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[{"product":"mailbox_interface_driver","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":[{"id":"CWE-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"}],"description":"Improper permissions in the installer for the Intel(R) Mailbox Interface driver, all versions, 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) Mailbox Interface driver Advisory","id":"CVE-2020-8743","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 Intel(R) CSME versions, Intel(R) TXE, Intel(R) SPS","id":"CVE-2020-8744"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) NUCs Advisory","id":"CVE-2020-8742"},"products":["Intel(R) Mailbox Interface driver Advisory"],"published":"2020-08-13","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 local user can escalate privileges due to improper permissions in the Intel Mailbox Interface driver installer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8743/"}
