Technical details

The vulnerability encompasses two primary issues: 'Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling' (CWE-770) and 'Sensitive Information in Resource Not Removed Before Reuse' (CWE-226) within the ASUS System Control Interface driver and ASUS Business Manager. A local attacker with high privileges (Administrator) can trigger these flaws by sending specially crafted Input/Output Control (IOCTL) requests to the affected driver. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to disclose sensitive system information or trigger a system-wide Denial of Service (DoS). ASUS has addressed these vulnerabilities in System Control Interface v3 (v3.1.66.0), System Control Interface (v1.1.40.0), and Business Manager (versions newer than v3.0.38.0).

Affected products

  • ASUS System Control Interface v3 less than v3.1.66.0
  • ASUS System Control Interface less than v1.1.40.0
  • ASUS Business Manager less than or equal to v3.0.38.0
