Descriptions
An unprivileged network attacker could gain system privileges to provisioned Intel manageability SKUs: Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) and Intel Standard Manageability (ISM). An unprivileged local attacker could provision manageability features gaining unprivileged network or local system privileges on Intel manageability SKUs: Intel Active Management Technology (AMT), Intel Standard Manageability (ISM), and Intel Small Business Technology (SBT).
Un atacante de red sin privilegios podría alcanzar privilegios del sistema para aprovisionar SKUs de administrabilidad Intel: Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) e Intel Standard Manageability (ISM). Un atacante local sin privilegios podría aprovisionar características de administrabilidad alcanzando privilegios de red o sistema local no privilegiados en SKUs de administrabilidad de Intel: Intel Active Management Technology (AMT), Intel Standard Manageability (ISM) e Intel Small Business Technology (SBT).
A potential security vulnerability has been identified in HPE ML10 Gen 9 Server using Intel Xeon E3-1200 v5 Processor. The vulnerability could be remotely exploited to allow access restriction bypass. **Note:** On May 1st, 2017, Intel disclosed a new vulnerability with their Intel Manageability Firmware which is utilized on some systems containing Intel processors. This vulnerability allows an unprivileged network or local attacker to gain control of the remote manageability features of Intel Active Management Technology (AMT), Intel Standard Manageability (ISM), and Intel Small Business Technology (SBT) platforms. Do not attempt to upgrade the ME FW without following the instructions detailed in the Resolution section. Refer to the "Platform Specific Information" section in the Resolution for more specific information on upgrades for specific ProLiant servers. Revision 1 of this advisory.
