It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2021-0053 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2021-0053 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi and Killer(TM) WiFi in Windows 10, published on 17 Nov 2021. 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-2021-0053 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi and Killer(TM) WiFi in Windows 10. 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-2021-0053/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-0053/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-0053","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-0053/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-0053","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gg32-3wgc-8g5j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel WiFi firmware","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated user with adjacent access can exploit improper initialization in Intel WiFi firmware to disclose sensitive information.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[{"product":"7265_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac1550_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac_3165_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac_3168_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac_8260_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac_8265_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac_9260_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac_9461_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac_9462_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ac_9560_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ax1650_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ax1675_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ax200_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ax201_firmware","vendor":"intel"},{"product":"ax210_firmware","vendor":"intel"}],"cvss":{"score":5.7,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-665","name":"Improper Initialization"}],"description":"Improper initialization in firmware for some Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi and Killer(TM) WiFi in Windows 10 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via adjacent 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":"Information disclosure in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi and Killer(TM) WiFi in Windows 10","id":"CVE-2021-0053","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) NUCs","id":"CVE-2021-0054"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Computing Improvement Program","id":"CVE-2021-0052"},"products":["Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi and Killer(TM) WiFi in Windows 10"],"published":"2021-11-17","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi in UEFI","id":"CVE-2021-0071","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-17"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Denial of service in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi and Killer(TM) WiFi in Windows 10","id":"CVE-2021-0078","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi software installer for Windows 10","id":"CVE-2021-0064","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi software installer for Windows 10","id":"CVE-2021-0065","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi in Windows 10","id":"CVE-2021-0082","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-17"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Denial of service in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi and Killer(TM) WiFi in Windows 10","id":"CVE-2021-0063","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-17"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Denial of service in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi in multiple operating systems and some Killer(TM) WiFi in Windows 10","id":"CVE-2021-0069","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-17"}],"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":"2024-08-03","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An authenticated user with adjacent access can exploit improper initialization in Intel WiFi firmware to disclose sensitive information.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-0053/"}
