CVE-2025-26402

Protection mechanism failure for some Intel(R) NPU Drivers within Ring 3: User Applications may allow a denial of service. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable denial of service. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are not present without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

Summary		(es) Falla del mecanismo de protección para algunos controladores Intel(R) NPU dentro del Anillo 3: Las aplicaciones de usuario pueden permitir una denegación de servicio. Un adversario de software sin privilegios con un usuario autenticado, combinado con un ataque de baja complejidad, puede habilitar la denegación de servicio. Este resultado puede ocurrir potencialmente a través de acceso local cuando los requisitos de ataque no están presentes, sin conocimiento interno especial y no requiere interacción del usuario. La potencial vulnerabilidad puede impactar la confidencialidad (ninguna), integridad (ninguna) y disponibilidad (alta) del sistema vulnerable, lo que resulta en impactos subsiguientes en la confidencialidad (ninguna), integridad (ninguna) y disponibilidad (ninguna) del sistema.
