CVE-2026-20752

Improper authentication for some Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software within Ring 0: Kernel may...

6.7 Medium

CVE-2026-20752 is a medium vulnerability (CVSS 6.7) in Intel Corporation Intel(r) Proset/wireless Wifi Software, published August 11, 2026. No source lists public exploit code. EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.19%, the 8th percentile. No source names a fixed version.

Improper authentication for some Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software within Ring 0: Kernel may allow an information disclosure. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a low complexity attack may enable data exposure. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are not 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 (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
