A bug in AMD CPU’s core logic may allow for an attacker, using specific code from an unprivileged VM, to trigger a CPU core hang resulting in a potential denial of service. AMD believes the specific code includes a specific x86 instruction sequence that would not be generated by compilers.
Improper validation of the BIOS directory may allow for searches to read beyond the directory table copy in RAM, exposing out of bounds memory contents, resulting in a potential denial of service.
Insufficient bounds checking in System Management Unit (SMU) may cause invalid memory accesses/updates that could result in SMU hang and subsequent failure to service any further requests from other components.
Insufficient DRAM address validation in System Management Unit (SMU) may result in a DMA read from invalid DRAM address to SRAM resulting in SMU not servicing further requests.
