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-2024-21859 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Processors. 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-2024-21859/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-21859/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-21859","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-21859/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-21859","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vcrj-34mv-cmcg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Processor Firmware","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A privileged local attacker can exploit improper buffer restrictions in Intel UEFI firmware to disclose sensitive information.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:H/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Improper buffer restrictions in the UEFI firmware for some Intel(R) Processors may allow a privileged user to potentially enable information disclosure 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":"Information disclosure in Intel(R) Processors","id":"CVE-2024-21859","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Dsoftbus has a use after free vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-21860"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) oneAPI Compiler software","id":"CVE-2024-21857"},"products":["Intel(R) Processors"],"published":"2025-02-12","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-13","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A privileged local attacker can exploit improper buffer restrictions in Intel UEFI firmware to disclose sensitive information.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-21859/"}
