Vulnerabilities

A TOCTOU (Time-Of-Check-Time-Of-Use) in SMM may allow an attacker with ring0 privileges and access to the BIOS menu or UEFI shell to modify the communications buffer potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.

An out of bounds memory write when processing the AMD PSP1 Configuration Block (APCB) could allow an attacker with access the ability to modify the BIOS image, and the ability to sign the resulting image, to potentially…

Improper or unexpected behavior of the INVD instruction in some AMD CPUs may allow an attacker with a malicious hypervisor to affect cache line write-back behavior of the CPU leading to a potential loss of guest virtual…

Insufficient input validation in the ASP Bootloader may enable a privileged attacker with physical access to expose the contents of ASP memory potentially leading to a loss of confidentiality.

TOCTOU in the ASP Bootloader may allow an attacker with physical access to tamper with SPI ROM records after memory content verification, potentially leading to loss of confidentiality or a denial of service.

Insufficient DRAM address validation in System Management Unit (SMU) may allow an attacker to read/write from/to an invalid DRAM address, potentially resulting in denial-of-service.

A compromised or malicious ABL or UApp could send a SHA256 system call to the bootloader, which may result in exposure of ASP memory to userspace, potentially leading to information disclosure.

A TOCTOU in ASP bootloader may allow an attacker to tamper with the SPI ROM following data read to memory potentially resulting in S3 data corruption and information disclosure.

Improper syscall input validation in the ASP Bootloader may allow a privileged attacker to read memory out-of-bounds, potentially leading to a denial-of-service.

Insufficient checks in SEV may lead to a malicious hypervisor disclosing the launch secret potentially resulting in compromise of VM confidentiality.

Insufficient input validation in SYS_KEY_DERIVE system call in a compromised user application or ABL may allow an attacker to corrupt ASP (AMD Secure Processor) OS memory which may lead to potential arbitrary code execut…

IBPB may not prevent return branch predictions from being specified by pre-IBPB branch targets leading to a potential information disclosure.

Execution unit scheduler contention may lead to a side channel vulnerability found on AMD CPU microarchitectures codenamed “Zen 1”, “Zen 2” and “Zen 3” that use simultaneous multithreading (SMT).

Aliases in the branch predictor may cause some AMD processors to predict the wrong branch type potentially leading to information disclosure.

Mis-trained branch predictions for return instructions may allow arbitrary speculative code execution under certain microarchitecture-dependent conditions.

A potential vulnerability in some AMD processors using frequency scaling may allow an authenticated attacker to execute a timing attack to potentially enable information disclosure.

An attacker with access to a malicious hypervisor may be able to infer data values used in a SEV guest on AMD CPUs by monitoring ciphertext values over time.

In SEV guest VMs, the CPU may fail to flush the Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) following a particular sequence of operations that includes creation of a new virtual machine control block (VMCB).

Insufficient validation of elliptic curve points in SEV-legacy firmware may compromise SEV-legacy guest migration potentially resulting in loss of guest's integrity or confidentiality.

AMD EPYC™ Processors contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the Secure Encrypted Virtualization with Encrypted State (SEV-ES) and Secure Encrypted Virtualization with Secure Nested Paging (SEV-SNP).

A malicious hypervisor in conjunction with an unprivileged attacker process inside an SEV/SEV-ES guest VM may fail to flush the Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) resulting in unexpected behavior inside the virtual machi…

AMD System Management Unit (SMU) may experience a heap-based overflow which may result in a loss of resources.

A side effect of an integrated chipset option may be able to be used by an attacker to bypass SPI ROM protections, allowing unauthorized SPI ROM modification.

AMD System Management Unit (SMU) contains a potential issue where a malicious user may be able to manipulate mailbox entries leading to arbitrary code execution.

Improper input and range checking in the AMD Secure Processor (ASP) boot loader image header may allow an attacker to use attacker-controlled values prior to signature validation potentially resulting in arbitrary code e…
