CVE-2024-2201 is a cross-privilege Spectre v2 Branch History Injection (BHI) vulnerability affecting certain Intel CPUs with incomplete Spectre v2/BHI mitigations. An attacker can manipulate shared microarchitectural branch-predictor state to speculatively redirect execution to a chosen gadget and infer privileged memory contents, bypassing deployed mitigations including FineIBT. The issue is classified as CWE-1423, exposure of sensitive information caused by shared microarchitectural predictor state that influences transient execution.
