CVE-2020-12334

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Intel(R) Advisor tools versions prior to 2020 Update 2

Description: The issue is related to improper permissions in the installer for the Intel(R) Advisor tools, which may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. This is due to errors in managing privileges. The exploitation of this issue can allow an attacker to elevate their privileges.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 2020 Update 2, update to version 2020 Update 2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting local access to the installer to minimize the risk of exploitation.
