Exploitation Conditions

Requires adjacent-network access (AV:A) to a host running the Intel TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD), with the attacker able to reach MigTD's TLS implementation - relevant where TD live-migration is in use. Per the CVSS vector exploitation is unauthenticated (PR:N) with no user interaction (UI:N) and low attack complexity (AC:L/AT:N). The key limiting factor is that this is NOT remotely routable from the internet: the attacker must already sit on the same adjacent segment as the MigTD, which substantially constrains exposure. The exact fault that produces the DoS is not described in the available sources beyond the CWE-252 unchecked-return-value classification; impact is confined to integrity-low and availability-low of the MigTD with no subsequent-system effect.

Impact

This is a genuinely medium-severity, not an inflated high. The vendor CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) describes an adjacent-network, low-complexity, unauthenticated reach, but the impact is deliberately bounded: confidentiality none, integrity low, availability low, with no subsequent-system impact (SC/SI/SA all N), yielding a 5.3 Medium. The decision framework signals align with a measured response rather than an emergency: vuln.today priority is 'this_month', not act_now or emergency. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public PoC or exploit reference are present in the input, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active exploitation. The one point of friction worth flagging is AV:A: this is an adjacent-access flaw in Intel TDX's Migration TD, not an internet-facing service, so real-world risk is gated by an attacker already having a foothold on the migration/network segment - materially narrowing exposure despite PR:N. The only confirmed source is the Intel advisory (INTEL-SA-01580); no independent corroboration is in the dataset.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An adversary with a position on the same (adjacent) network segment as a TDX host sends crafted TLS traffic to the MigTD during or around a Trust Domain migration; because a return value in MigTD's TLS handling is not checked, the condition leads to a denial of service against the Migration TD. No authentication and no user interaction are required (PR:N/UI:N). No public PoC or exploit code is referenced in the available sources.

AnalysisAIv1 – Nov 10, 2026

Intel TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD) contains an unchecked return value in its TLS implementation, classified CWE-252, that a network adversary can leverage for a denial of service against the migration agent. Affected deployments are those using TDX live migration with MigTD, where an unauthenticated attacker on an adjacent network segment can trigger the fault with low attack complexity and no user interaction; impact is confined to low integrity and low availability of MigTD itself, with no confidentiality or subsequent-system effects. No public exploit code or CISA KEV entry was identified in the available sources, and the vuln.today priority is 'this_month' rather than emergency, reflecting the adjacent-access precondition; the vendor advisory is Intel-SA-01580.

RemediationAI

Consult Intel advisory Intel-SA-01580 (https://intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-01580.html) for the vendor-listed fixed MigTD versions and update the MigTD component to the release specified there; the input data does not publish an exact fix version, so the advisory is the authoritative source for which build resolves CVE-2026-62930. Because exploitation requires adjacent-network access (AV:A) to MigTD's TLS interface, exposure can be reduced while patching is staged by segmenting the TDX migration network so that only known migration peers can reach MigTD's TLS endpoint, and by disabling TD live migration where it is not operationally required; both measures shrink the attack surface but do not remove the defect, and restricting the migration path can interfere with legitimate live-migration and workload-balancing workflows. The assessed impact is limited to low integrity and low availability of MigTD with no subsequent-system effect, and no public exploit code or CISA KEV entry is present in the available sources, so remediation can follow the 'this_month' priority rather than emergency handling.

Technical ContextAI · show details

MigTD is the Intel TDX Migration Trust Domain, a security-hardened agent that participates in the live migration of Trust Domains and establishes a TLS-protected channel for that purpose. The flaw is an unchecked return value (CWE-252) inside MigTD's TLS implementation: a return value or status from a TLS-layer operation is not validated, so a crafted interaction over the TLS interface can drive the migration agent into a failure state. CWE-252 is a robustness class of defect rather than a memory-safety bug per the available evidence, and the sources do not describe the specific TLS routine or failure path involved in the DoS. The CPE identifier covers Intel(R) TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD) without version granularity, so patch-level applicability must be confirmed against Intel advisory Intel-SA-01580. The CVSS:4.0 vector records AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N with VC:N/VI:L/VA:L and all subsequent-system impacts none, matching the CVSS:3.1 assessment of AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L at 5.3.

DescriptionCVE.org

Unchecked return value in the MigTD's TLS implementation for the Intel(R) TDX Migration Trust Domain (MigTD) within Ring 0: Hypervisor may allow a denial of service. Network adversary with an unauthenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable denial of service. This result may potentially occur via adjacent 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 (low) and availability (low) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
