Intel this week released patches for more than two dozen vulnerabilities impacting graphics drivers, FPGA, processors, NUC, BlueZ, and other products.
The chip maker patched a total of 17 vulnerabilities in its graphics drivers, the most important of which is a buffer overflow that could result in denial of service.
Ten of the remaining vulnerabilities are considered medium severity and could result in escalation of privilege, denial of service, or information disclosure.
Tracked as CVE-2020-0530 and CVE-2020-0526, the vulnerabilities are considered high severity, featuring CVSS scores of 7.8 and 7.7, respectively.
All of these vulnerabilities could be exploited by authenticated users via local access, Intel says.
