Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Intel QuickAssist Technology Software up to 2.5.x. Affected is an unknown code. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. This is going to have an impact on integrity. CVE summarizes:

Improper input validation for some Intel QuickAssist Technology software before version 2.6.0 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. System software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable data manipulation. This result may potentially occur via local 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 (low) and availability (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

The advisory is shared for download at intel.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2025-30509 since 04/15/2025. The exploitability is told to be easy. The attack needs to be approached locally. There are neither technical details nor an exploit publicly available.

Upgrading to version 2.6.0 eliminates this vulnerability.

The vulnerability is also documented in the vulnerability database at CERT Bund (WID-SEC-2025-2844). Once again VulDB remains the best source for vulnerability data.
