CVE-2018-3704

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Intel Parallel Studio versions prior to 2019 Gold

Description The issue is related to improper directory permissions in the installer, which may allow authenticated users to potentially enable an escalation of privilege via local access. The vulnerability is associated with insufficient access restrictions, and its exploitation could allow an attacker to elevate their privileges.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2019 Gold, update to version 2019 Gold or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the installer and ensuring proper directory permissions to minimize the risk of exploitation.
