Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper Initialization (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53374)

CWE-ID: CWE-665 - Improper Initialization

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause memory corruption in GPU address translation.

The vulnerability exists due to improper initialization in the AMDGPU GART table when allocating and populating page table entries in VRAM. A local user can trigger GART mappings so that stale uninitialized entries are used to cause memory corruption in GPU address translation.

The issue arises because speculative TLB loads may consume other uninitialized entries from the same cacheline, and stale garbage page table entries may later be used by the GPU.
