Null pointer dereference in Intel(R) QAT Windows software before version 2.6.0 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow a denial of service. An authenticated user with a low-complexity attack can cause a denial of service via local access.
- CVE-2025-24519Medium
A buffer overflow in some Intel(R) QAT Windows software before version 2.6.0 within user applications (Ring 3) may allow data manipulation. An authenticated attacker with low attack complexity can exploit it without user interaction.
Original NVD description (English source)
Untrusted pointer dereference for some Intel(R) QAT Windows software before version 2.6.0. within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an information disclosure. System software adversary with an authenticated 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 (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
