A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information or gain administrative privileges. Moritz Lipp, Michael Schwarz, Andreas Kogler, David Oswald, Catherine Easdon, Claudio Canella, and Daniel Gruss discovered that the Intel Running Average Power Limit driver in the Linux kernel did not properly restrict access to power data.
