A vulnerability was found in EDK II (version now known). It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown processing of the component SMM Service. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a confused deputy vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-441. The product receives a request, message, or directive from an upstream component, but the product does not sufficiently preserve the original source of the request before forwarding the request to an external actor that is outside of the product's control sphere. This causes the product to appear to be the source of the request, leading it to act as a proxy or other intermediary between the upstream component and the external actor. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
Insufficient memory write check in SMM service for EDK II may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege, information disclosure and/or denial of service via local access.
