Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
Out-of-bounds read for the Intel(R) Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi software before version 2.0.2 within Ring 1: Device Drivers may allow a denial of service. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a low complexity attack may enable data exposure. 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 (high), integrity (none) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (high), integrity (none) and availability (high) impacts.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege-abusing denial of service and information disclosure in the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi before version 2.0.2 lets a privileged local user trigger an out-of-bounds read (CWE-125) in the Ring 1 device-driver layer, potentially crashing the host and exposing adjacent memory. The flaw carries a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.3 driven by high confidentiality and availability impact plus a scope change into subsequent systems. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is negligible (0.01%), and CISA SSVC rates exploitation as 'none' and non-automatable.
Technical ContextAI
The affected component is the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver (kernel-mode GPU driver, e.g. for Intel Flex/Max data center GPUs) running inside VMware ESXi's driver layer, characterized by Intel as 'Ring 1: Device Drivers.' The root cause is CWE-125, an out-of-bounds read, where the driver reads memory outside the bounds of an intended buffer - typically due to missing or incorrect length/index validation on data processed by the driver. Because the code executes in a privileged host context, an OOB read can both leak the contents of adjacent kernel/host memory (confidentiality impact) and destabilize or crash the driver/host (availability impact). The single CPE, cpe:2.3:a:n/a:intel(r)_data_center_graphics_driver_for_vmware_esxi_software:*, is version-wildcarded, so version scoping comes from the advisory text ('before 2.0.2') rather than a bounded CPE range.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: version 2.0.2 - upgrade the Intel Data Center Graphics Driver for VMware ESXi to 2.0.2 or later on all affected ESXi hosts, per Intel advisory INTEL-SA-01402 (https://intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-01402.html). Because exploitation requires an already-privileged local user, the most effective compensating control until patching is to tightly restrict who holds privileged/administrative access on affected ESXi hosts and enforce least-privilege on host management accounts; monitor host and driver stability for unexpected crashes that could indicate OOB-read triggering. If the Intel data center GPU functionality is not in use on a given host, unloading or not installing the vulnerable driver removes the attack surface entirely (trade-off: loss of GPU acceleration/passthrough on that host). Avoid granting untrusted workloads or tenants privileged host-level access.
