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-2025-21093 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Driver \u0026amp; Support Assistant Tool 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-2025-21093/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-21093/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-21093","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-21093/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-21093","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vhrg-xmf9-hhh8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Driver Support Assistant","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges via an uncontrolled search path element in Intel Driver \u0026 Support Assistant.","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:N/PR:L/UI:P/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 element for some Intel(R) Driver \u0026amp; Support Assistant Tool software before version 24.6.49.8 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) Driver \u0026amp; Support Assistant Tool software","id":"CVE-2025-21093","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) Server D50DNP and M50FCP boards","id":"CVE-2025-21094"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"GMOD Apollo Incorrect Privilege Assignment","id":"CVE-2025-21092"},"products":["Intel(R) Driver \u0026amp; Support Assistant Tool 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 via an uncontrolled search path element in Intel Driver \u0026 Support Assistant.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-21093/"}
