Insufficient control flow management in the firmware for some Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable an escalation of privilege via local access.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.30%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
