SB20260812265 - Out-of-bounds write in Linux kernel amd amdgpu driver

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.

1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-68276)

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds write in the cleaner shader sysfs path in amdgpu_gfx_run_cleaner_shader_job() when filling the shader IB buffer. A local user can trigger the cleaner shader sysfs path to overflow the allocated buffer and cause a denial of service.

The issue can result in a kernel page fault on GFX rings because a 16-dword IB allocation is overrun by writes based on an align_mask value of 0xff.

Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
