AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 27, 2026

A stack buffer overflow in the AMD display driver (dc_process_dmub_aux_transfer_async) within the Linux kernel allows a local authenticated attacker with low privileges to potentially execute arbitrary code or crash the system. The flaw arises from missing bounds checks on payload length and link_index, impacting all kernels before the patched versions. While no active exploitation or public proof-of-concept is reported, the issue affects a wide range of systems with AMD GPUs.

DescriptionCVE.org

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amd/display: Validate payload length and link_index in dc_process_dmub_aux_transfer_async

[Why&How] dc_process_dmub_aux_transfer_async() copies payload->length bytes into a 16-byte stack buffer (dpaux.data[16]) guarded only by an ASSERT(), which is a no-op in release builds. If a caller ever passes length > 16 this results in a stack buffer overflow via memcpy.

Additionally, link_index is used to dereference dc->links[] without bounds checking against dc->link_count, risking an out-of-bounds access.

Replace the ASSERT with a hard runtime check that returns false when payload->length exceeds the destination buffer size, and add a bounds check for link_index before it is used.

(cherry picked from commit ba4caa9fecdf7a38f98c878ad05a8a64148b6881)

Attack Technique

A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
