Amd ≫ Ryzen Threadripper 3970x Firmware

A compromised or malicious ABL or UApp could send a SHA256 system call to the bootloader, which may result in exposure of ASP memory to userspace, potentially leading to information disclosure.

Insufficient control flow management in AmdCpmGpioInitSmm may allow a privileged attacker to tamper with the SMM handler potentially leading to escalation of privileges.

Insufficient control flow management in AmdCpmOemSmm may allow a privileged attacker to tamper with the SMM handler potentially leading to an escalation of privileges.

When SMT is enabled, certain AMD processors may speculatively execute instructions using a target from the sibling thread after an SMT mode switch potentially resulting in information disclosure.

IBPB may not prevent return branch predictions from being specified by pre-IBPB branch targets leading to a potential information disclosure.

Insufficient verification of missing size check in 'LoadModule' may lead to an out-of-bounds write potentially allowing an attacker with privileges to gain code execution of the OS/kernel by loading a malicious TA.

Improper parameters handling in the AMD Secure Processor (ASP) kernel may allow a privileged attacker to elevate their privileges potentially leading to loss of integrity.

Improper parameters handling in AMD Secure Processor (ASP) drivers may allow a privileged attacker to elevate their privileges potentially leading to loss of integrity.

Execution unit scheduler contention may lead to a side channel vulnerability found on AMD CPU microarchitectures codenamed “Zen 1”, “Zen 2” and “Zen 3” that use simultaneous multithreading (SMT). By measuring the contention level on scheduler queues ...

Aliases in the branch predictor may cause some AMD processors to predict the wrong branch type potentially leading to information disclosure.
