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-2025-20099 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology installation software. 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-2025-20099/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20099/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-20099","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20099/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-20099","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gw2r-pf7h-382c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Rapid Storage Technology","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges due to improper access control in Intel Rapid Storage Technology installation software.","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-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Improper access control for some Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology installation software 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) Rapid Storage Technology installation software","id":"CVE-2025-20099","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Xeon(R) 6 processor with E-cores","id":"CVE-2025-20100"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority because it is Unused","id":"CVE-2025-20098"},"products":["Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology installation software"],"published":"2025-08-12","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":"2026-02-26","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges due to improper access control in Intel Rapid Storage Technology installation software.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20099/"}
