CVE-2026-0428: CWE-1284 Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input in AMD AMD Instinct™ MI300A
CVE-2026-0428 is a low-severity vulnerability in the AMD Instinct™ MI300A related to improper validation of input parameters in the TEE SOC Driver. Specifically, insufficient sanitization of a command (DRV_SOC_CMD_ID_SRIOV_COPY_VF_CHIPLET_REG) allows an attacker with high privileges to write invalid data to a remote Die, which may cause unexpected behavior. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4. 0 base score of 1. 8, indicating low impact and complexity. There is no vendor-provided patch or official remediation guidance available at this time, and no known exploits in the wild have been reported. The affected product is not a cloud service, so remediation depends on AMD's release of a fix. No geographic targeting is indicated.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2026-0428) affects the AMD Instinct™ MI300A platform and involves improper validation of a specified quantity in input parameters within the TEE SOC Driver. An attacker with high privileges can issue a malformed DRV_SOC_CMD_ID_SRIOV_COPY_VF_CHIPLET_REG command to write invalid data to a remote Die. This improper input sanitization could lead to unexpected device behavior. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates local attack vector, high attack complexity, no user interaction required, and low impact on availability. No patch or remediation level has been provided by AMD as of the publication date.
Potential Impact
The impact is limited due to the low CVSS score (1.8) and the requirement for high privileges to exploit the vulnerability. Successful exploitation could cause unexpected behavior on the affected hardware by writing invalid data to a remote Die, but there is no indication of privilege escalation, denial of service, or data confidentiality/integrity compromise. No known exploits exist in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or temporary mitigation has been provided by AMD, users should monitor AMD's advisories for updates. Given the requirement for high privileges to exploit this vulnerability, limiting administrative access and following best practices for privileged account management may reduce risk until a patch is available.
