# CVE-2025-7026: SMM Arbitrary Write via Unchecked RBX Pointer in CommandRcx0

- Severity: CVSS 8.2 (High), CISA-ADP
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Public exploit code: 1 GitHub repo listed by PoC-in-GitHub
- Published: 2025-07-11 · Updated: 2026-02-26

## Affected

- GIGABYTE UEFI-GenericComponentSmmEntry: 1.0.0

## Description

A vulnerability in the Software SMI handler (SwSmiInputValue 0xB2) allows a local attacker to control the RBX register, which is used as an unchecked pointer in the CommandRcx0 function. If the contents at RBX match certain expected values (e.g., '$DB$' or '2DB$'), the function performs arbitrary writes to System Management RAM (SMRAM), leading to potential privilege escalation to System Management Mode (SMM) and persistent firmware compromise.
