Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Intel Server Boards, Server Systems and Compute Modules versions prior to 1.59

Description: The issue is related to a buffer overflow in a subsystem, which may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. This is due to a lack of input size validation, allowing for uncontrolled data copying.
