V15 - Secure Coding and Architecture Buffer size calculation
|
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires local access to the platform and privileges at the hypervisor / Ring-0 system-software level (CVSS PR:L), specifically the servtd_get_quote quote-retrieval path of the Intel TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD). Per the vector, a particular attack requirement must be present (AT:P) and the attack is high complexity (AC:H), meaning conditions outside the attacker's full control must align for the incorrect buffer-size calculation to be triggered; the available sources do not describe the exact triggering mechanism. No user interaction is required (UI:N). Limiting factors: the attacker must already be a local, privileged system-software/hypervisor adversary; the impact is confined to low availability (DoS) of MigTD with no confidentiality or integrity impact and no effect on other systems. |
| Impact | This is a low-priority issue across every available signal, not a high-CVSS flaw masquerading as low risk - the signals are internally consistent. The vendor CVSS 4.0 base score is only 2.0, driven by AV:L (local access), AC:H (high attack complexity), AT:P (a specific attack requirement/precondition must be present), PR:L (requires some privilege/authentication), and an impact limited to VA:L - low availability impact only, with no confidentiality or integrity impact and no subsequent-system (scope) impact. The outcome is a denial of service confined to the MigTD component. The vuln.today decision label is 'monitor', the lowest-urgency tier, which aligns with the scoring. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no proof-of-concept were provided in the input, so there is no evidence of exploitation or exploit tooling. Because this is a system-software adversary scenario (a Ring-0 hypervisor interacting with the Trust Domain) requiring local access, high complexity, and existing privileges to degrade only availability, it should be patched through normal maintenance rather than treated as an emergency. No signals conflict; the main gap is the absence of EPSS/KEV/POC data, whose absence is expected for a freshly disclosed low-severity Intel advisory and is not itself evidence of safety. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A privileged system-software adversary operating at the hypervisor (Ring 0) level, with local access and some authenticated privilege, crafts conditions that reach MigTD's servtd_get_quote path where a buffer size is miscalculated (CWE-131), causing a denial of service of the MigTD component. The attack is rated high complexity with a specific attack requirement, so it is not a simple or reliable trigger. No public exploit identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Nov 10, 2026
Incorrect buffer-size calculation in Intel TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD)'s servtd_get_quote quote-retrieval path can allow a local adversary with hypervisor/Ring-0 system-software privileges to trigger a low-impact denial of service. Exploitation is constrained by high attack complexity and a required attack precondition, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis. The issue is rated CVSS 2.0 in the supplied CVSS 4.0 data and assessed as low severity with availability-only impact.
RemediationAI
The provided data does not include an exact fixed version; consult the referenced Intel advisory at https://intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-01580.html for the vendor's fixed releases and update instructions. Because exploitation requires local access and hypervisor/Ring-0 system-software privileges, restrict who can run or load system software at that privilege level and monitor MigTD availability for crashes or quote-retrieval failures; these measures reduce exposure but do not remediate the underlying defect. No additional vendor workaround is described in the supplied sources.

Technical ContextAI · show details
MigTD is Intel's TDX Migration Trust Domain component, and servtd_get_quote is the quote-retrieval path cited by the vendor. The root-cause class is CWE-131, incorrect calculation of buffer size, meaning the code computes a size that does not match the buffer it operates on; the supplied evidence does not state which buffer, allocation, or resulting fault condition is involved, so the exact trigger is not described in the available sources. The CVSS 4.0 vector records local access, PR:L privileges, high attack complexity (AC:H), a required attack precondition (AT:P), no user interaction, and only low availability impact; the independent assessment maps this to CVSS 3.1 AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L. The CPE identifies the Intel(R) TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD) product but does not bind a version.

DescriptionCVE.org
Incorrect calculation of buffer size in the MigTD's servtd_get_quote for the Intel(R) TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD) within Ring 0: Hypervisor may allow a denial of service. System software adversary with an unauthenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable denial of service. 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 (none) and availability (low) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
