Insyde: Security Vulnerabilities
An issue was discovered in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.2 through 5.5. The Save State register is not checked before use. The IhisiSmm driver does not check the value of a save state register before use. Due to insufficient input validation, an attacker can corrupt SMRAM.

An issue was discovered in IhisiSmm in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.0 through 5.5. IHISI subfunction execution may corrupt SMRAM. An attacker can pass an address in the RCX save state register that overlaps SMRAM, thereby coercing an IHISI subfunction handler to overwrite private SMRAM.

An issue was discovered in Insyde InsydeH2O with kernel 5.0 through 5.5. DMA attacks on the FvbServicesRuntimeDxe shared buffer used by SMM and non-SMM code could cause TOCTOU race-condition issues that could lead to corruption of SMRAM and escalation of privileges. This attack can be mitigated using IOMMU protection for the ACPI runtime memory used for the command buffer. This attack can be mitigated by copying the firmware block services data to SMRAM before checking it.
