An issue was discovered in IhisiSmm in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.0 through 5.5. It is possible to write to an attacker-controlled address. An attacker could invoke an SMI handler with a malformed pointer in RCX that overlaps SMRAM, resulting in SMM memory corruption.
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
