Improper permissions in the installer for the Intel(R) Advisor tools before version 2020 Update 2 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.

Weakness

The product does not preserve permissions or incorrectly preserves permissions when copying, restoring, or sharing objects, which can cause them to have less restrictive permissions than intended.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Advisor_tools Intel * 2020 (including)
Advisor_tools Intel 2020-update_1 (including) 2020-update_1 (including)
