unknown

CVSS measures technical severity, not the likelihood of an attack.

Known exploitation

Not listed in the checked CISA KEV catalog

Absence from CISA KEV does not rule out attacks.

Public exploit

Not established by this record

Missing evidence does not mean no public exploit exists.

Remediation

Source guidance available

Review the recorded instructions. Guidance may be a workaround rather than a fixed version.

What this means

The Linux kernel's drm/amdkfd component has an integer underflow vulnerability in EOP ring size calculation, affecting versions prior to 6.12.117, 6.18.61, 7.2.8, and 7.3. The issue occurs when calculating the base-2 logarithm of the EOP ring size.

Summarized by @cf/meta/llama-3.3-70b-instruct-fp8-fast. Verify details against the original sources.

What to do

Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.

Change this to

order_base_2(q->eop_ring_buffer_size / 8)

Original source description

Read the full publisher description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdkfd: Avoid integer underflow in EOP ring size calculation.

The low 6 bits of cp_hqd_eop_control store the base-2 logarithm of the EOP ring size. This was calculated as

order_base_2(q->eop_ring_buffer_size / 4) - 1

But order_base_2 can in theory return 0, so this could underflow (although in practice the ring buffer size cannot be less than 4096).

Change this to

order_base_2(q->eop_ring_buffer_size / 8)

using properties of logarithms.

Also add to the above comment to make the mathematics more clear.
