# Intel PROSet/Wireless Wi-Fi software for Windows: local denial of service flaw

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-33275 (this .md is for agents)

Some Intel PROSet/Wireless Wi-Fi Software versions for Windows release resources improperly when user-mode applications run. A local user with an account can crash or stall the Wi-Fi software, causing denial of service.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed Intel PROSet/Wireless driver and software version in Device Manager or Intel's software list
- Compare it with the fixed versions named in the Intel advisory: unknown

## From the sources

Improper resource shutdown or release for some Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless Wi-Fi Software for Windows 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.
