AI-suggested
A fix is available in the Linux kernel versions identified by commits b1d2b29d3115b36efba0976cb5ca3d794c58eead and 27ef1795bc4e47cae838e0a3ced531c549f9b23d. Users should update to a Linux kernel version that includes these commits to remediate the vulnerability.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's AMDGPU driver related to the ATOM command table nesting depth has been addressed. The fix caps the nesting depth at 32 levels and returns an error (-ELOOP) if this limit is exceeded. This prevents potential issues caused by excessive command table nesting.
