Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Intel Approximate Bayesian Inference Framework (unknown version). This issue affects an unknown code block. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a untrusted search path vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-426. The product searches for critical resources using an externally-supplied search path that can point to resources that are not under the product's direct control. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Uncontrolled search path for some Approximate Bayesian Inference Framework before version on commit #484c949 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with a privileged user combined with a low complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires passive user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

It is possible to read the advisory at intel.com. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2026-32788 since 03/20/2026. The exploitation is known to be difficult. Attacking locally is a requirement. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not publicly available. The pricing for an exploit might be around USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 08/11/2026). The attack technique deployed by this issue is T1574 according to MITRE ATT&CK.

Applying the patch 484c949 is able to eliminate this problem.
