CVE-2022-41342
Improper buffer restrictions in the Intel(R) C++ Compiler Classic before version 2021.7.1 for some Intel(R) oneAPI Toolkits before version 2022.3.1 may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.18%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
