According to Intel, there is a buffer overflow in the drivers for one of their most popular NICs that can be used to escalate privilege locally. The flaw affects drivers for Intel PRO 10/100 adapters on Windows (>=Win2K), Linux, and UnixWare platforms. A complete listing of affected driver versions can be found here.

This means a lot of Dell PC's/Laptops/Servers are affected right?
