INTEL VTUNE PROFILER · CVE-2026-32670 · Infrastructure
FIX → 2026.0.0 · 2026.1 · 5.58 ✓ verified
Intel VTune Profiler's Ring 1 device driver has a time-of-check time-of-use race condition (CVE-2026-32670, CVSS 4.0 8.5 High). A local, authenticated low-privilege user can escalate privileges. Fixed in VTune Profiler 2026.0.0 (INTEL-SA-01477).

Machines where Intel VTune Profiler before 2026.0.0 is installed, including copies bundled in the Intel oneAPI Toolkit or System Bring-up Toolkit before 2026.0.0, SoC Watch before 2026.1, or SEP before 5.58. An attacker needs local access with a low-privilege account. Systems without these tools can skip it; shared developer workstations and build or profiling hosts matter most.

Time-of-check time-of-use race condition for the Intel(R) VTune(TM) Profiler software within Ring 1: Device Drivers may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. 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 (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
