4DescriptionCVE.org
A weakness has been identified in Almico Speedfan 4.52. This affects the function KiSystemCall64 in the library speedfan.sys of the component MSR Index Handler. Executing a manipulation can lead to memory leak. The attack can only be executed locally. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
AnalysisAI
Memory leak exploitation in Almico Speedfan 4.52 is constrained to local, high-privilege access and produces limited availability degradation via the speedfan.sys kernel driver's MSR Index Handler. The vulnerability resides in the KiSystemCall64 handler path within speedfan.sys, where kernel pool memory is allocated but never released during MSR index processing, enabling gradual resource exhaustion on affected Windows hosts. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Almico Speedfan 4.52 must be installed on the target Windows system with the speedfan.sys kernel driver actively loaded. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 4.6 (Medium) with vector AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N accurately characterizes the narrow real-world risk: exploitation is local-only, demands pre-existing administrator-level privileges, and yields only low availability impact with zero confidentiality or integrity exposure. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; the Almico vendor was contacted prior to public disclosure and did not respond. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
