Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-68447)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in the amdkfd CRIU checkpoint handling for the MQD control stack when copying checkpoint data to userspace. A local user can trigger a checkpoint operation with a hardware-reported control stack size larger than the allocated buffer object to disclose sensitive information.

The issue can leak kernel data from adjacent GTT memory to userspace.
