Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Intel(R) E810 Ethernet Controllers versions prior to 1.4.1.13
Description
The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the firmware of Intel(R) E810 Ethernet Controllers. This may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent access. The exploitation of this issue can permit a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
