Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds via improper calculation of firmware size and offsets in the drm/amdgpu/vce1 process. An attacker can read or write outside the intended memory boundaries by submitting crafted ioctl commands to the DRM render device, potentially leading to disclosure of sensitive memory, corruption of adjacent GPU or GART-backed allocations, or causing GPU/card lockup.

Note: The Linux kernel project assigns a CVE to every bug fix it ships, whether or not the bug has been shown to be exploitable. This advisory was generated from that process and has not been individually assessed for exploitability. See the kernel's CVE process documentation: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/process/cve.rst
