Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Insufficient Entropy (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-62626)

CWE-ID: CWE-331 - Insufficient Entropy

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient entropy in Zen 5 processors, which causes the RDSEED instruction to return 0 at a rate inconsistent with randomness while incorrectly signaling success (CF=1), indicating a potential misclassification of failure as success. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.
