Critical security flaws in Intel's internal web infrastructure exposed personal data of more than 270,000 employees and may have allowed attackers to access sensitive corporate and supplier information. Multiple Intel-owned websites showed severe weaknesses in web application security. Security research identified four separate internal systems that were exploitable. Those vulnerabilities provided several methods to exfiltrate the complete global employee directory. In some instances, the flaws enabled escalation to full administrative access, potentially granting attackers broader control of internal resources and supplier data. The findings raise concerns about the company's handling of web application security and potential impacts on privacy and operations.
A series of critical security flaws in Intel's internal web infrastructure exposed the personal details of more than 270,000 employees and potentially provided attackers with access to sensitive corporate and supplier information.
The discoveries highlight severe weaknesses across multiple Intel-owned websites, raising broader concerns about the company's handling of web application security.
According to security research findings that surfaced this week, four separate internal Intel systems were exploitable, offering multiple paths to exfiltrate the full global employee directory and, in some cases, to escalate into full administrative access.
