CVE-2025-27940 is an out-of-bounds read vulnerability affecting some Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) Module versions prior to tdx1.5. The flaw exists in a highly privileged TDX component and may be triggered by a Ring 0 hypervisor under software side-channel attack conditions. Successful exploitation can cause unintended reading of memory outside the intended bounds, leading to disclosure of sensitive information from the vulnerable environment. The issue is described as requiring a privileged local adversary, high attack complexity, and specific attack requirements, with no user interaction required.
