A Time-of-check time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition in the SMM communications buffer could allow a privileged attacker to bypass input validation and perform an out of bounds read or write, potentially resulting in loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability.

Weakness

The product checks the state of a resource before using that resource, but the resource’s state can change between the check and the use in a way that invalidates the results of the check.
