CVE-2026-20702
NVD analysis in progress
Protection mechanism failure for some Intel(R) Data Center Attestation Primitives (Intel(R) DCAP) may allow information disclosure. Unprivileged software adversary with an unauthenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable data exposure. This result may potentially occur via network access when attack requirements are present with special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (none), integrity (high) and availability (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (high), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim. It also depends on circumstances the attacker does not control.
- Impact
- An attacker can modify or destroy data. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- An intended protection is missing or can be bypassed.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
