Description Rohit Keshri 2023-03-21 07:42:42 UTC 
Potential security vulnerabilities in the BIOS firmware and Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (TXT) Secure Initialization (SINIT) Authenticated Code Modules (ACM) for some Intel® Processors may allow escalation of privilege.  Intel is releasing BIOS updates to mitigate these potential vulnerabilities.

Improper initialization in the BIOS firmware for some Intel(R) Processors may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.
