Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53202)

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to a stack-based buffer overflow in the ivpu_ipc_receive function when processing firmware-supplied IPC message data. A local user can supply a crafted data_size value to trigger an oversized memcpy operation and execute arbitrary code.

Exploitation requires control over firmware-supplied message data.
