Protection mechanism failure for some Intel(R) oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch before version v2.8.0 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an… (CVE-2026-24693)
A protection mechanism failure exists in some Intel oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch before version 2.8.0, allowing a local privileged user combined with an unprivileged adversary to potentially escalate privileges. The vulnerability requires low complexity and passive user interaction but local access. It impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability with a medium severity score of 6.7. No patch status is confirmed from the provided data.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-24693 describes a protection mechanism failure in Intel oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch versions prior to 2.8.0 within Ring 3. This flaw allows an unprivileged software adversary, when combined with a privileged user, to escalate privileges via local access with low attack complexity and no user interaction. The vulnerability affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system at a high impact level, though no further system-level impacts are detailed. The CVSS 3.1 score is 6.7 (medium severity).
Potential Impact
The vulnerability may allow escalation of privilege by a local attacker with some level of privilege, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system components. The impact is rated high for confidentiality, integrity, and availability within the vulnerable context, but no broader system-level impacts are specified.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since the vulnerability affects versions before 2.8.0, upgrading to version 2.8.0 or later may address the issue if confirmed by the vendor. Until official guidance is available, restrict local access to trusted users and monitor for suspicious activity related to privilege escalation attempts.
