CVE-2025-52532: CWE-367 Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition in AMD AMD Radeon™ PRO V620
CVE-2025-52532 is a low-severity vulnerability in the AMD Radeon™ PRO V620 MxGPU-Virtualization driver. It involves a time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition due to unsynchronized concurrent access to a global variable in an unlocked ioctl handler. This flaw can lead to a heap-based buffer overflow, potentially causing denial-of-service in the affected system context. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor. Exploitation in the wild is not known at this time.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability is a TOCTOU race condition (CWE-367) in the ioctl path of the MxGPU-Virtualization driver for AMD Radeon™ PRO V620. Concurrent unsynchronized access to the global variable amdgv_cmd in an unlocked ioctl handler can be exploited to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 2.0, indicating low severity. The vulnerability could result in denial-of-service but does not appear to allow privilege escalation or code execution. No patch or official remediation level has been published by AMD as of the data provided.
Potential Impact
The primary impact is a potential denial-of-service condition caused by a heap-based buffer overflow triggered through a race condition in the driver. The vulnerability requires local access with low privileges and high attack complexity, limiting its exploitability. There is no indication of remote exploitation or impact on confidentiality or integrity.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, limiting access to the vulnerable driver and avoiding concurrent ioctl calls that could trigger the race condition may reduce risk. Monitor AMD advisories for updates.
