Technical details

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in AMI APTIOV BIOS firmware that can be triggered by a privileged local attacker. The flaw may manifest as a denial of service (system crash or failed firmware update) when the out-of-bounds read accesses unmapped memory, and could also lead to information disclosure or availability impact.
