UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38360: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability

Q: Which systems are exposed to this issue?

The affected packages listed are Ubuntu linux-azure-fde, linux-riscv, linux-realtime, linux-hwe-edge, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-gke, and linux-gkeop. The issue concerns AMD display hardware using non-zero DSC instances on sequential ONO ASICs.

Q: What conditions are needed to trigger the system hang?

A non-zero DSC instance must be driven when its corresponding HUBP power domain is not appropriately powered. This can place the display tile logic into an undefined state and cause a system hang.

Q: What is the impact if the issue is triggered?

The documented impact is a system hang. The supplied CVSS vector indicates local access, low privileges, and low attack complexity, with availability impact but no stated confidentiality or integrity impact.

Q: What does the fix change?

The fix adds checks to ensure that the HUBP domain matching the DSC instance is appropriately powered before use.

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Add more checks for DSC / HUBP ONO guarantees [WHY] For non-zero DSC instances it's possible that the HUBP domain required to drive it for sequential ONO ASICs isn't met, potentially causing the logic to the tile to enter an undefined state leading to a system hang. [HOW] Add more checks to ensure that the HUBP domain matching the DSC instance is appropriately powered. (cherry picked from commit da63df07112e5a9857a8d2aaa04255c4206754ec)
