Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Intel PROSet and Wireless WiFi on Windows and classified as critical. This issue affects an unknown part of the component Device Driver Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a insufficient control flow management vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-691. The code does not sufficiently manage its control flow during execution, creating conditions in which the control flow can be modified in unexpected ways. Impacted is availability. The summary by CVE is:

Insufficient control flow management 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.
