Vulnerability in Intel Tdx Module (CVE-2026-20705, CVSS 5.3)

Summary

Vulnerability in Intel Tdx Module (CVE-2026-20705). Confidential information can be exposed externally.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Insecure storage of sensitive information in the Intel(R) TDX module for some Intel(R) platform within Ring 0: Trust Domain may allow information disclosure. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a high complexity attack may enable data exposure. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (none) and availability (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (high), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
