A race condition in System Management Mode (SMM) code may allow an attacker using a compromised user space to leverage CVE-2018-8897 potentially resulting in privilege escalation.
Insufficient validation of SPI flash addresses in the ASP (AMD Secure Processor) bootloader may allow an attacker to read data in memory mapped beyond SPI flash resulting in a potential loss of availability and integrity.
A side channel vulnerability on some of the AMD CPUs may allow an attacker to influence the return address prediction. This may result in speculative execution at an attacker-controlled address, potentially leading to information disclosure.
An attacker with specialized hardware and physical access to an impacted device may be able to perform a voltage fault injection attack resulting in compromise of the ASP secure boot potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.Â
Insufficient input validation in
CpmDisplayFeatureSmm may allow an attacker to corrupt SMM memory by overwriting
an arbitrary bit in an attacker-controlled pointer potentially leading to
arbitrary code execution in SMM.
