Lifecycle Timeline
3Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/pm: Disable MMIO access during SMU Mode 1 reset During Mode 1 reset, the ASIC undergoes a reset cycle and becomes temporarily inaccessible via PCIe. Any attempt to access MMIO registers during this window (e.g., from interrupt handlers or other driver threads) can result in uncompleted PCIe transactions, leading to NMI panics or system hangs. To prevent this, set the `no_hw_access` flag to true immediately after triggering the reset. This signals other driver components to skip register accesses while the device is offline. A memory barrier `smp_mb()` is added to ensure the flag update is globally visible to all cores before the driver enters the sleep/wait state. (cherry picked from commit 7edb503fe4b6d67f47d8bb0dfafb8e699bb0f8a4)
Analysis
AMD GPU drivers on Linux systems fail to prevent MMIO register access during SMU Mode 1 reset, allowing incomplete PCIe transactions that can trigger NMI panics or system hangs. A local attacker with driver interaction capabilities could exploit this to cause a denial of service by accessing registers while the device is offline. …
