An issue was discovered in TrEEConfigDriver in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.0 through 5.5. It can report false TPM PCR values, and thus mask malware activity. Devices use Platform Configuration Registers (PCRs) to record information about device and software configuration to ensure that the boot process is secure. (For example, Windows uses these PCR measurements to determine device health.) A vulnerable device can masquerade as a healthy device by extending arbitrary values into Platform Configuration Register (PCR) banks. This requires physical access to a target victim's device, or compromise of user credentials for a device. This issue is similar to CVE-2021-42299 (on Surface Pro devices).

An issue was discovered in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.0 through 5.5. UEFI implementations do not correctly protect and validate information contained in the 'MeSetup' UEFI variable. On some systems, this variable can be overwritten using operating system APIs. Exploitation of this vulnerability could potentially lead to denial of service for the platform.

An issue was discovered in SysPasswordDxe in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.0 through 5.5. System password information could optionally be stored in cleartext, which might lead to possible information disclosure.

An issue was discovered in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.0 through 5.5. Due to insufficient input validation, an attacker can tamper with a runtime-accessible EFI variable to cause a dynamic BAR setting to overlap SMRAM.

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).
