CVE-2026-20887: Denial of Service in Intel Vision software
Improper access control for some Intel Vision software for all versions within Ring 3: User Applications may allow a denial of service. Unprivileged software adversary with an unauthenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable remote code execution. This result may potentially occur via network 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 (low) and availability (low) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability in Intel Vision software arises from improper access control in user applications (Ring 3). An unauthenticated, unprivileged attacker can remotely trigger a denial of service with low complexity and no user interaction. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.8, reflecting high confidentiality impact and low integrity and availability impacts. The vulnerability affects all versions of the software. No vendor advisory or patch information is provided, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability may allow remote denial of service by unauthenticated, unprivileged attackers, impacting the confidentiality of the system highly and integrity and availability to a lesser extent. Despite the potential for denial of service, no subsequent impacts on system confidentiality, integrity, or availability are expected. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official remediation level or patch links are provided, users should monitor Intel's advisories for updates. Until a fix is available, consider restricting network access to the affected software where feasible to reduce exposure.
