Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Improper Initialization
EUVDB-ID: #VU45727
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-12301
CWE-ID:
CWE-665 - Improper Initialization
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper initialization in BIOS firmware. A local administrator can run a specially crafted application to execute arbitrary code with escalated privileges on the system.
MitigationInstall updates from vendor's website.

2) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU45726
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 1.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:L/VI:H/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-12299
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
Description
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in BIOS firmware. A local administrator can pass specially crafted input to the application and gain elevated privileges on the target system.
