What is CVE-2022-21216?

The vulnerability in selected models of Intel Atom and Xeon Scalable Processors is rooted in the insufficient granularity of access control mechanisms within their out-of-band management systems. This flaw allows a privileged user to potentially escalate their privileges through adjacent network access, thereby increasing the risk of unauthorized actions or data breaches. Organizations using affected processors should assess their security configurations and implement the recommended patches to mitigate potential risks.
