In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu/pm/powerplay: bounds-check voltage index in SMU7 lookup

vddInd and vddcInd fields from VBIOS-parsed tables are used to index into voltage lookup tables without a bounds check. Return -EINVAL when any index is out of range.

Description

Frequently Asked Questions

1

What systems are exposed to this issue?

Systems using the Linux kernel AMDGPU PowerPlay code path for SMU7 hardware may be exposed when VBIOS-parsed voltage tables contain out-of-range vddInd or vddcInd values.

2

What condition is required to trigger the flaw?

The issue requires a VBIOS-parsed table with a voltage index that falls outside the corresponding voltage lookup table. The vulnerable code uses those indices without validating their bounds.

3

How does the fix handle invalid voltage indices?

The resolved code checks the vddInd and vddcInd values against the voltage lookup table bounds and returns -EINVAL if either index is out of range.
