| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires a privileged system-software adversary (PR:H) with local access (AV:L) to the host running the Intel TDX Migration Trust Domain - realistically a malicious or compromised hypervisor/VMM operating at Ring 0 - interacting with MigTD's vmcall_raw transport. A specific attack requirement must also be present (AT:P): the input indicates exploitation depends on conditions outside the attacker's direct control, and the exact trigger is not described in the available sources. Limiting factors that reduce real-world risk: the attacker must already hold high privilege (no unauthenticated or low-privilege path), access is local rather than network, user interaction is not required but the triggering condition must exist, and TDX live migration (the MigTD feature) must actually be deployed and in use. Impact is confined to integrity of the trust domain - no confidentiality or availability loss and no subsequent-system impact. |
| Impact | This is a medium-severity issue (CVSS 4.0 base 5.6) whose signals consistently point to low real-world urgency rather than a drop-everything priority. The vector CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N requires local access (AV:L), already-high privileges (PR:H - a system-software/hypervisor-level adversary), and a non-attacker-controlled attack requirement to be present (AT:P), with impact limited to integrity of the vulnerable system (VI:H) and no confidentiality, availability, or subsequent-system impact. The vuln.today priority label is 'this_month' - not act_now or emergency - which aligns with the constrained vector. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no PoC or exploit reference are present in the input, so there is no public evidence of exploitation or exploit tooling. The CWE-390 class (detection of an error condition without action) in MigTD's vmcall_raw transport implies a missing error-handling path rather than a direct memory-safety primitive; the precise trigger is not described in the available sources. Net: a legitimate but bounded confidential-computing integrity flaw that warrants scheduled patching, not emergency response. Note the data gap: the Intel advisory (INTEL-SA-01580) is referenced but its contents (fixed versions, affected MigTD builds) are not included in the provided data and should be confirmed directly. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A system-software-level adversary who already holds a privileged position on the host (e.g., a malicious or compromised hypervisor/VMM) interacts with the Intel TDX Migration Trust Domain over its vmcall_raw transport while a specific triggering condition is present, exercising an error path that MigTD detects but fails to act on (CWE-390). Because the error is not handled, the adversary can drive a data-corruption / integrity-escalation outcome against the migration trust domain. No public PoC or exploit code is identified at time of analysis, and the trigger mechanism is not described in the available sources. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Nov 10, 2026
Integrity-only privilege escalation in Intel TDX MigTD can let a privileged local adversary at Ring 0 abuse the vmcall_raw transport to corrupt the migration trust domain’s integrity, with no confidentiality or availability impact and no subsequent-system effect. The issue affects environments that actually deploy the Intel TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD) and requires a specific attack prerequisite (AT:P) in addition to high privilege and local access; the exact trigger is not described in the available sources. No public exploit was identified at time of analysis, and the medium-severity CVSS 4.0 score of 5.6 aligns with a this-month priority rather than emergency response.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, so no exact patched release can be cited; consult Intel advisory intel-sa-01580 (https://intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-01580.html) for the current fixed MigTD/TDX version and apply it when Intel publishes the update. If TDX live migration through MigTD is not operationally required, disabling or not deploying that migration path removes the vmcall_raw exposure, at the cost of losing live-migration capability. Because exploitation requires a privileged system-software adversary at Ring 0, restrict and monitor hypervisor/VMM administrative access as a compensating control; this reduces the likelihood of a malicious or compromised hypervisor triggering the issue but does not remediate the error-handling flaw itself.

Technical ContextAI · show details
CVE-2026-62275 is rooted in CWE-390, detection of an error condition without action, in the vmcall_raw transport used by Intel’s TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD). MigTD is part of Intel TDX live-migration handling and operates in a Ring 0/hypervisor-adjacent context; the CPE identifies the affected product as Intel(R) TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD) with wildcarded versions, so the supplied data does not pin a specific release. The independent assessment scores the issue CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N with AT:P, meaning exploitation needs local access, high privilege, and an attack prerequisite outside the attacker’s direct control; the sources do not state which error condition or vmcall_raw path is involved. The impact is integrity-only within the trust domain, with no confidentiality or availability loss and no downstream impact.

DescriptionCVE.org
Detection of error condition without action in the MigTD's vmcall_raw transport for the Intel(R) TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD) within Ring 0: Hypervisor may allow an escalation of privilege. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a low complexity attack may enable data corruption. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (none), integrity (high) and availability (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
