CVE-2025-30506 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.4/10 on the CVSS scale. Uncontrolled search path for some Intel Driver and Support Assistant before version 25.2 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable local code execution. EPSS estimates a 0.11% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Description

Uncontrolled search path for some Intel Driver and Support Assistant before version 25.2 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable local code execution. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are not present without special internal knowledge and requires active user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
