LowCVSS 3.3Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk2th percentile - higher than 2% of all known CVEs
Summary
Improper conditions check in some Intel(R) QAT Windows software before version 2.6.0 within Ring 3 (user applications) may allow a denial of service. The attack requires an authenticated user and local access, with impact limited to availability (low).
Risk Assessment
An authenticated local attacker could cause a denial of service, affecting availability of the system using Intel QAT.
Recommendation
Update Intel(R) QAT Windows software to version 2.6.0 or later.
Other vulnerabilities in Intel QAT Windows software
See all- CVE-2025-32732Medium
Intel(R) QAT Windows software before version 2.6.0 contains a buffer overflow in Ring 3 (user applications) that may allow denial of service. The attack requires an authenticated user and local access, with no user interaction.
- CVE-2025-27713High
Out-of-bounds write for some Intel(R) QAT Windows software before version 2.6.0 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. System software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege via local access without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction.
Original NVD description (English source)
Improper conditions check for some Intel(R) QAT Windows software before version 2.6.0. within Ring 3: User Applications may allow a denial of service. System software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a low 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.
