AMD : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, CVSS score >= 9

Improper input validation in the SMM Supervisor may allow an attacker with a compromised SMI handler to gain Ring0 access potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

A potential vulnerability was reported in Radeon™ Software Crimson ReLive Edition which may allow escalation of privilege. Radeon™ Software Crimson ReLive Edition falls outside of the security support lifecycle and AMD does not plan to release any mitigations

Improper access control settings in ASP Bootloader may allow an attacker to corrupt the return address causing a stack-based buffer overrun potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

Improper access control in System Management Mode (SMM) may allow an attacker to write to SPI ROM potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

Failure to validate the AMD SMM communication buffer may allow an attacker to corrupt the SMRAM potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

Insufficient input validation in the SMU may allow an attacker to corrupt SMU SRAM potentially leading to a loss of integrity or denial of service.

A malicious or compromised UApp or ABL can send a malformed system call to the bootloader, which may result in an out-of-bounds memory access that may potentially lead to an attacker leaking sensitive information or achieving code execution.

Insufficient validation of inputs in SVC_MAP_USER_STACK in the ASP (AMD Secure Processor) bootloader may allow an attacker with a malicious Uapp or ABL to send malformed or invalid syscall to the bootloader resulting in a potential denial of service and loss of integrity.

Insufficient input validation in the ASP (AMD Secure Processor) bootloader may allow an attacker with a compromised Uapp or ABL to coerce the bootloader into exposing sensitive information to the SMU (System Management Unit) resulting in a potential loss of confidentiality and integrity.

Failure to validate the length fields of the ASP (AMD Secure Processor) sensor fusion hub headers may allow an attacker with a malicious Uapp or ABL to map the ASP sensor fusion hub region and overwrite data structures leading to a potential loss of confidentiality and integrity.

Insufficient input validation of mailbox data in the SMU may allow an attacker to coerce the SMU to corrupt SMRAM, potentially leading to a loss of integrity and privilege escalation.

The AMDPowerProfiler.sys driver of AMD ?Prof tool may allow lower privileged users to access MSRs in kernel which may lead to privilege escalation and ring-0 code execution by the lower privileged user.

In the AMD SEV/SEV-ES feature, memory can be rearranged in the guest address space that is not detected by the attestation mechanism which could be used by a malicious hypervisor to potentially lead to arbitrary code execution within the guest VM if a malicious administrator has access to compromise the server hypervisor.

The lack of nested page table protection in the AMD SEV/SEV-ES feature could potentially lead to arbitrary code execution within the guest VM if a malicious administrator has access to compromise the server hypervisor.

AMD ATI atillk64.sys 5.11.9.0 allows low-privileged users to interact directly with physical memory by calling one of several driver routines that map physical memory into the virtual address space of the calling process. This could enable low-privileged users to achieve NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges via a DeviceIoControl call associated with MmMapIoSpace, IoAllocateMdl, MmBuildMdlForNonPagedPool, or MmMapLockedPages.

An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the Shader functionality of AMD Radeon DirectX 11 Driver atidxx64.dll 26.20.15019.19000. An attacker can provide a a specially crafted shader file to trigger this vulnerability, resulting in code execution. This vulnerability can be triggered from a HYPER-V guest using the RemoteFX feature, leading to executing the vulnerable code on the HYPER-V host (inside of the rdvgm.exe process). Theoretically this vulnerability could be also triggered from web browser (using webGL and webassembly).

An exploitable memory corruption vulnerability exists in AMD atidxx64.dll 26.20.15019.19000 graphics driver. A specially crafted pixel shader can cause memory corruption vulnerability. An attacker can provide a specially crafted shader file to trigger this vulnerability. This vulnerability potentially could be triggered from guest machines running virtualization environments (ie. VMware, qemu, VirtualBox etc.) in order to perform guest-to-host escape - as it was demonstrated before (TALOS-2018-0533, TALOS-2018-0568, etc.). Theoretically this vulnerability could be also triggered from web browser (using webGL and webassembly). This vulnerability was triggered from HYPER-V guest using RemoteFX feature leading to executing the vulnerable code on the HYPER-V host (inside of the rdvgm.exe process).

An issue was discovered in AODDriver2.sys in AMD OverDrive. The vulnerable driver exposes a wrmsr instruction via IOCTL 0x81112ee0 and does not properly filter the Model Specific Register (MSR). Allowing arbitrary MSR writes can lead to Ring-0 code execution and escalation of privileges.

An exploitable type confusion vulnerability exists in AMD ATIDXX64.DLL driver, versions 26.20.13031.10003, 26.20.13031.15006 and 26.20.13031.18002. A specially crafted pixel shader can cause a type confusion issue, leading to potential code execution. An attacker can provide a specially crafted shader file to trigger this vulnerability. This vulnerability can be triggered from VMware guest, affecting VMware host.

An exploitable memory corruption vulnerability exists in AMD ATIDXX64.DLL driver, versions 25.20.15031.5004 and 25.20.15031.9002. A specially crafted pixel shader can cause an out-of-bounds memory write. An attacker can provide a specially crafted shader file to trigger this vulnerability. This vulnerability can be triggered from VMware guest, affecting VMware host.

The AMD EPYC Server, Ryzen, Ryzen Pro, and Ryzen Mobile processor chips allow Platform Security Processor (PSP) privilege escalation.
