CPU-Z hardware information driver (64-bit)

From CPUID

Part of the CPUID family

Status

On a known-vulnerable list

Known variants

1 distinct hashes

Field notes

cpuz_x64.sys is the 64-bit build of CPUID's CPU-Z kernel driver, the same driver as cpuz.sys with an explicit architecture suffix. Same software, same story: older versions provided more system access than the tool needed. CPUID has patched current releases.

If you have CPU-Z installed, update to the current version.

What the record shows

cpuz_x64.sys is listed as a known-vulnerable driver on the public LOLDrivers project. One distinct binary hash matching this filename is on record.

What this means, plainly

Presence is not proof of misuse. Driver files on the LOLDrivers list commonly ship with legitimate hardware tools, gaming software, or vendor utilities. Their presence is recorded as evidence on a record. It is never treated as a verdict about a person.
