CVE-2025-52540: CWE-787 Out-of-bounds Write in AMD AMD Ryzen™ 7035 Series Processors with Radeon™ Graphics (formerly codenamed "Rembrandt R")
CVE-2025-52540 is a high-severity vulnerability in AMD Ryzen™ 7035 Series Processors with Radeon™ Graphics, caused by improper input validation in the AMD Platform Management Framework (PMF) Driver. This flaw allows a local attacker to perform an out-of-bounds write, which can potentially lead to privilege escalation on affected systems. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.5, indicating significant impact if exploited. No official patch or remediation guidance has been provided by AMD as of the published date. There are no known exploits in the wild currently. Users should monitor AMD advisories for updates on mitigation or patches.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-52540 is an out-of-bounds write vulnerability (CWE-787) in the AMD Platform Management Framework (PMF) Driver for AMD Ryzen™ 7035 Series Processors with Radeon™ Graphics (Rembrandt R). The issue arises from improper input validation, enabling a local attacker to write outside the intended memory bounds. This can result in privilege escalation, allowing the attacker to gain higher system privileges. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 score of 8.5, reflecting high severity. No patch or official remediation level has been disclosed by AMD at this time.
Potential Impact
A successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges on the affected system by leveraging an out-of-bounds write in the PMF driver. This could compromise system integrity and security. There are no reports of active exploitation in the wild, but the high CVSS score indicates a serious risk if exploited.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released by AMD, users should limit local access to trusted personnel and monitor for updates from AMD. No vendor advisory or official mitigation instructions are currently available.
