Intel Memory and Storage Tool < 2.3 Multiple Vulnerabilities (INTEL-SA-00967)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 190602

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Intel Memory and Storage Tool installed on the remote host is prior to 2.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the INTEL-SA-00967 advisory.

 - Improper initialization in some Intel(R) MAS software before version 2.3 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via local access. (CVE-2023-36490)

 - Race condition in some Intel(R) MAS software before version 2.3 may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. (CVE-2023-41090)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade Intel Memory and Storage Tool based upon the guidance specified in INTEL-SA-00967.
