Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Intel(R) CSME versions prior to 11.8.80 Intel(R) TXE versions prior to 3.1.80

Description: The issue is related to insufficient control flow management in the subsystem for Intel(R) CSME and Intel(R) TXE, which may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via physical access. This could lead to unauthorized access to protected information.

Recommendations: For Intel(R) CSME versions prior to 11.8.80, update to version 11.8.80 or later. For Intel(R) TXE versions prior to 3.1.80, update to version 3.1.80 or later. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting physical access to the affected systems until a patch is available.
