The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts."], "name": "CVE-2025-35998", "package_state": [{"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:10", "fix_state": "Affected", "package_name": "microcode_ctl", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:6", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "microcode_ctl", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:7", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "microcode_ctl", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:8", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "microcode_ctl", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:9", "fix_state": "Affected", "package_name": "microcode_ctl", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9"}], "public_date": "2026-02-10T16:26:00Z", "references": ["https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2025-35998\nhttps://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-35998\nhttps://intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-01406.html"], "statement": "Actual for the Intel Xeon 6 with E-cores.\nFirmware or microcode update could be required (using BIOS or using other utilities by administrator).\nThe bug accessible only to privileged users (like administrator can try to trigger it), so the impact is limited (means PR:H for the CVSS).", "threat_severity": "Important"}
