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-2025-20083 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Slim Bootloader. 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-2025-20083/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20083/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-20083","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20083/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-20083","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4f7p-jr5x-cg78"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Slim Bootloader","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A privileged local user can escalate privileges due to improper authentication in Intel Slim Bootloader firmware.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:H/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"Improper authentication in the firmware for the Intel(R) Slim Bootloader may allow a privileged 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":"Auth bypass in Intel(R) Slim Bootloader","id":"CVE-2025-20083","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in Edge Orchestrator software for Intel(R) Tiber™ Edge Platform","id":"CVE-2025-20084"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Race condition in Intel(R) Server D50DNP and M50FCP boards","id":"CVE-2025-20082"},"products":["Intel(R) Slim Bootloader"],"published":"2025-05-13","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":"2026-02-26","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A privileged local user can escalate privileges due to improper authentication in Intel Slim Bootloader firmware.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20083/"}
