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-2024-29979 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Phoenix SecureCore™ for Intel Coffee Lake. 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-2024-29979/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-29979/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-29979","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-29979/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-29979","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x4p9-p8g9-v45f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Phoenix SecureCore firmware","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can manipulate input data in Phoenix SecureCore firmware to potentially execute code or escalate privileges on affected Intel systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Phoenix","cpe":[{"product":"securecore_technology","vendor":"phoenixtech"}],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:L","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-754","name":"Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions"}],"description":"Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in Phoenix SecureCore™ for Intel Kaby Lake, Phoenix SecureCore™ for Intel Coffee Lake, Phoenix SecureCore™ for Intel Comet Lake, Phoenix SecureCore™ for Intel Ice Lake allows Input Data Manipulation.This issue affects SecureCore™ for Intel Kaby Lake: before 4.0.1.1012; SecureCore™ for Intel Coffee Lake: before 4.1.0.568; SecureCore™ for Intel Comet Lake: before 4.2.1.292; SecureCore™ for Intel Ice Lake: before 4.2.0.334.","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":"Unsafe Handling of Phoenix UEFI Variables","id":"CVE-2024-29979","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Unsafe Handling of IHV UEFI Variables","id":"CVE-2024-29980"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Multiple MFPs (multifunction printers)","id":"CVE-2024-29978"},"products":["SecureCore™ for Intel Coffee Lake","SecureCore™ for Intel Comet Lake","SecureCore™ for Intel Ice Lake","SecureCore™ for Intel Kaby Lake"],"published":"2025-01-14","related":[{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Missing authorization in SecureCore™ Technology™ 4","id":"CVE-2023-31100","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Other in SecureCore™ Technology™ 4","id":"CVE-2023-5058","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-07"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Potential buffer overflow when handling UEFI variables","id":"CVE-2024-0762","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Potential buffer overflow when handling UEFI variables","id":"CVE-2024-1598","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-14"},{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Unsafe Handling of IHV UEFI Variables","id":"CVE-2024-29980","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-01-14"},{"cvss_score":3.3,"headline":"Other in SecureCore Technology 4","id":"CVE-2024-12533","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-13"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-07-28","vendors":["Phoenix"]},"summary":"Attackers can manipulate input data in Phoenix SecureCore firmware to potentially execute code or escalate privileges on affected Intel systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-29979/"}
