It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-36291 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Chipset Software Installation Utility. 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-2024-36291/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-36291/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-36291","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-36291/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-36291","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r6h8-vrh6-m65f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Chipset Utility","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local attacker can escalate privileges via an uncontrolled search path in the Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:H/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"Uncontrolled search path for some Intel(R) Chipset Software Installation Utility before version 10.1.19867.8574 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) Chipset Software Installation Utility","id":"CVE-2024-36291","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in Intel(R) Data Center GPU Flex Series for Windows driver","id":"CVE-2024-36292"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Wavlink AC3000","id":"CVE-2024-36290"},"products":["Intel(R) Chipset Software Installation Utility"],"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-13","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An authenticated local attacker can escalate privileges via an uncontrolled search path in the Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-36291/"}
