Vulnerability details

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in kfd_queue_acquire_buffers() in the amdkfd queue handling code when aligning a user-supplied EOP ring buffer size. A local user can supply a crafted eop_ring_buffer_size value to cause a denial of service.

On GFX8 and GFX9 systems, the issue can cause CP EOP writes to land past the backing buffer and fault the GPU.
