What is CVE-2025-33029?
CVE-2025-33029 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software for Windows, published on 11 Nov 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
Out-of-bounds write for some Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software for Windows before version 23.160 within Ring 2: Device Drivers may allow a denial of service. Unprivileged software adversary with an unauthenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable denial of service. This result may potentially occur via adjacent access when attack requirements are not present without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (high) impacts.
