NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream intel-ucode package and not the intel-ucode package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.18 relevant fixed versions and status.

Hardware allows activation of test or debug logic at runtime for some Intel(R) processors which may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via physical access.
