A vulnerability exists in System Management Interrupt (SWSMI) handler of InsydeH2O UEFI Firmware code located in SWSMI handler that dereferences gRT (EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES) pointer to call a GetVariable service, which is located outside of SMRAM. This can result in code execution in SMM (escalating privilege from ring 0 to ring -2).

Insyde BIOS is typically used in RUGGEDCOM APE products and some SIMATIC devices. Please refer to the vendor advisory for a precise list of models concerned.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot Please visit https://www.tenable.com/products/tenable-ot for more information.
