AI-suggested
A patch is available and included in Linux kernel versions 7.0.0-1014.14~24.04.1 and later. Users should update to these fixed kernel versions to remediate the vulnerability. No additional mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's AMD GPU driver (drm/amdgpu/vce1) related to incorrect calculation of firmware size and offsets has been fixed. The issue involved the VCPU buffer object size not accounting for the firmware offset, potentially leading to out-of-bounds access. The fix ensures proper alignment and size checks for the firmware microcode. This vulnerability is addressed in Linux kernel versions 7.0.0 and later.
