Improper access control in some Intel(R) Power Gadget software for macOS all versions may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.
The product does not restrict or incorrectly restricts access to a resource from an unauthorized actor.
The product implements access controls via a policy or other feature with the intention to disable or restrict accesses (reads and/or writes) to assets in a system from untrusted agents. However, implemented access controls lack required granularity, which renders the control policy too broad because it allows accesses from unauthorized agents to the security-sensitive assets.
