AI-suggested
A fix is available that adds bounds checking to the voltage index lookups in the drm/amdgpu powerplay driver. Users should update to patched Linux kernel versions that include this fix. Since this is a kernel-level vulnerability, applying the official kernel updates from the vendor or distribution is the recommended remediation.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's drm/amdgpu powerplay component for Vega10 GPUs was resolved. The issue involved missing bounds checks on voltage index lookups from VBIOS-parsed tables, which could lead to out-of-range indexing. The fix returns an error (-EINVAL) when an index is out of range, preventing improper memory access.
