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-2025-20109 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-2025-20109/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20109/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-20109","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20109/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-20109","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2025-20109","BELL-CVE-2025-20109","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-20109","GHSA-3cpg-9r3v-qv5v","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-20109"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Processors","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local attacker can escalate privileges due to improper isolation in the Intel processor stream cache mechanism.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:H/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-653","name":"Improper Isolation or Compartmentalization"}],"description":"Improper Isolation or Compartmentalization in the stream cache mechanism for some Intel(R) Processors 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":true,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Processors","id":"CVE-2025-20109","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":"This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority because it is Unused","id":"CVE-2025-20110"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Network Adapter Driver installers for Windows 11","id":"CVE-2025-20108"},"products":["Intel(R) Processors"],"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 attacker can escalate privileges due to improper isolation in the Intel processor stream cache mechanism.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20109/"}
