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 copy without checking the size of the input, which may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. This could allow an attacker to elevate their privileges.
