CVE-2026-20718 May 12, 16:34 MEDIUM This Month

Privilege escalation in Intel NPU Driver software installers before version 32.0.100.4511 stems from incorrect default permissions applied to Ring 3 (user-space) components during installation, classified under CWE-276. A local authenticated low-privileged user on an affected system can exploit these misconfigured permissions under high-complexity conditions - requiring specific attack prerequisites and active user interaction - to achieve full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the vulnerable system. No active exploitation is confirmed (not in CISA KEV), EPSS is at the 1st percentile (0.01%), and SSVC designates exploitation status as none, indicating this is a theoretical but not currently weaponized risk.
