no remote protocol carries those fields.\nAC:L - restore_mqd() installs the crafted MQD then sets qp->is_active=0, so AMDKFD_IOC_GET_QUEUE_WAVE_STATE deterministically passes dqm get_wave_state()'s !is_active and cwsr_enabled checks (cwsr_enable defaults to 1) and v9 get_wave_state() copy_to_user()s using unclamped size-offset; no race or firmware quirk is required.\nPR:L - AMDKFD_IOC_GET_QUEUE_WAVE_STATE has ioctl flags 0, but the MQD size/offset that make get_wave_state() over-read are attacker-controlled only after KFD_CRIU_OP_RESTORE; kfd_ioctl() admits that op only with capable(CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE) or capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN), a delegated non-root cap routinely granted to CRIU/container checkpoint services.\nUI:N - The attacker opens /dev/kfd and issues KFD_CRIU_OP_RESTORE then AMDKFD_IOC_GET_QUEUE_WAVE_STATE against its own KFD process; no other user must mount a filesystem, open a file, or otherwise interact.\nS:U - The unbounded copy_to_user() from the kernel MQD control-stack BO in v9 get_wave_state() discloses host kernel/GTT memory inside the same kernel security authority;

restore_mqd() writes only sizeof(struct v9_mqd) plus ctl_stack_size into the buffer allocate_mqd() sized from q->ctl_stack_size, so this bug does not modify kernel memory out of bounds.\nA:H - A restored cp_hqd_cntl_stack_size of ~1MiB or an offset>size underflow to ~4GiB makes get_wave_state() copy_to_user() walk off the small kmap/vmap GTT/VRAM BO into unmapped kernel VA (and can trip CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY), producing a kernel oops."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_mqd_manager_v9.c"], "versions": [{"version": "42c6c48214b726c30918e8dc80e2168607d13ae4", "lessThan": "e2bef0f168be46692a6b900916ff5da3771480ed", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "42c6c48214b726c30918e8dc80e2168607d13ae4", "lessThan": "d9183d974ddd5f09d029beaf359275ac20d4d5fe", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "42c6c48214b726c30918e8dc80e2168607d13ae4", "lessThan": "ec646686613d8ab05b282d1463a7baa49fd6b83b", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "42c6c48214b726c30918e8dc80e2168607d13ae4", "lessThan": "7ef144458f48d5589e36f1b3d83e83db2e5c5ba5", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_mqd_manager_v9.c"], "versions": [{"version": "5.18", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "5.18", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.6.158", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.111", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.53", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.18", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.158"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.18", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.111"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.18", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.53"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.18", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e2bef0f168be46692a6b900916ff5da3771480ed"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d9183d974ddd5f09d029beaf359275ac20d4d5fe"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ec646686613d8ab05b282d1463a7baa49fd6b83b"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7ef144458f48d5589e36f1b3d83e83db2e5c5ba5"}], "title": "drm/amdkfd: Fix OOB memory exposure in get_wave_state()", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
