Local user with GPU render-node access (AV:L, PR:L) submits a malformed fenced CS with no user interaction; unvalidated kernel-memory handling yields high C/I/A.

DescriptionCVE.org

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

drm/amdgpu/jpeg: set no_user_fence for JPEG v3.0 ring

JPEG rings do not support 64-bit user fence writes, reject CS submissions with user fences.

(cherry picked from commit 4d7d774f100efb5089c86a1fb8c5bf47c63fc9ef)

AnalysisAI

Local privilege escalation / memory-corruption risk in the Linux kernel's AMD GPU (amdgpu) JPEG v3.0 ring driver, where the ring was allowed to accept command-stream submissions containing 64-bit user fences that the JPEG hardware cannot actually write. The fix flags the JPEG v3.0 ring as no_user_fence and rejects such CS submissions, closing an unvalidated-write condition reachable by any local user with GPU device access. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is low (0.17%) and this is not on CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

The affected subsystem is amdgpu, the mainline Linux kernel driver for AMD Radeon/Instinct GPUs, specifically its JPEG (JPEG decode/encode engine) v3.0 ring. GPU command submission (CS) lets userspace hand command buffers to hardware rings; a 'user fence' is a memory location the GPU writes on completion so userspace can poll for progress. JPEG rings do not implement 64-bit user-fence writes, yet the driver did not mark the ring with no_user_fence, so it accepted CS requests specifying user fences the engine could not correctly service. The upstream commit (cherry-picked from 4d7d774f) sets no_user_fence for the JPEG v3.0 ring and rejects fenced submissions. No CWE was assigned by NVD; the root cause is best characterized as improper validation of a hardware-capability constraint on a memory-write primitive (missing input/capability validation, CWE-20 class), which the vendor tags loosely as 'Information Disclosure.'

RemediationAI

Patch available per vendor advisory - upgrade to a fixed stable kernel for your branch (6.6.141, 6.12.91, 6.18.33, 7.0.10, or 7.1 or later per the ENISA EUVD data), or apply your distribution's backport of the commit that sets no_user_fence for the JPEG v3.0 ring (git.kernel.org/stable/c/ee035a9d3eed3a9f5a3e83c31a10b321c9598861 and the sibling stable commits). If you cannot patch immediately, the concrete compensating control is to restrict local access to the AMD GPU DRI/render devices - tighten permissions/ownership on /dev/dri/renderD* and /dev/dri/card* so only trusted users and services can submit GPU command streams; the trade-off is that GPU-accelerated workloads, containers, or compositors for restricted users will lose hardware acceleration. On multi-tenant or untrusted-user hosts, avoid exposing AMD GPU passthrough/JPEG engine access until patched. Cite and follow your distro's advisory for the exact backported package version rather than building from the raw commit.
