Summary

CVE-2025-32092 is a medium-severity Insecure Inherited Permissions (CWE-277) vulnerability in Intel Graphics Driver. Its CVSS base score is 5.4 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Path Interception (T1034); ranked at the 1th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-6 (Least Privilege) and AC-3 (Access Enforcement) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

Insecure inherited permissions for some Intel(R) Graphics Software before version 25.30.1702.0 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege.…

more

This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires active user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Least privilege requires that only the minimal necessary permissions are granted, which structurally prevents the definition and inheritance of overly broad permissions.

Access enforcement directly stops insecure inherited permissions from being applied to new objects by requiring all access decisions to follow approved authorizations.

PR.AA-05 mostly match
prevents

Directly addresses defining and enforcing secure access permissions and least privilege, which prevents insecure inheritance.

PR.PS-01 partial match
prevents

Configuration management practices include establishing secure permission baselines that avoid insecure inheritance.

PR.PS-06 partial match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices would catch and prevent defining insecure inherited permissions during development.

finds

Security testing may detect permission issues but does not prevent insecure inheritance by design.

degrades

Privileged access rights management can limit inheritance of excessive permissions but does not directly address insecure default permission inheritance.

prevents

Secure development lifecycle practices can include permission model reviews but do not guarantee secure inherited permissions.

prevents

Secure system architecture principles can incorporate least-privilege permission models but do not specifically mandate secure inheritance.

prevents

Secure coding standards can explicitly require setting restrictive permissions at object creation, directly mitigating insecure inheritance.

degrades

Information access restriction policies can reduce risk from inherited permissions but do not enforce secure permission inheritance at creation time.
