Integer overflow in the Intel(R) Trace Analyzer and Collector software before version 2021.5 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.
The product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. This occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. When this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number.
