hw: cpu: LFENCE/JMP Mitigation Update for CVE-2017-5715

LFENCE/JMP (mitigation V2-2) may not sufficiently mitigate CVE-2017-5715 on some AMD CPUs.

hw: amd: Insufficient verification in 'LoadModule' may lead to an out-of-bounds write

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.

A malicious or compromised UApp or ABL may coerce the bootloader into corrupting arbitrary memory potentially leading to loss of integrity of data.

A malicious or compromised UApp or ABL may be used by an attacker to issue a malformed system call to the Stage 2 Bootloader potentially leading to corrupt memory and code execution.

A malicious or compromised UApp or ABL may be used by an attacker to send a malformed system call to the bootloader, resulting in out-of-bounds memory accesses.

Insufficient check of the process type in Trusted OS (TOS) may allow an attacker with privileges to enable a lesser privileged process to unmap memory owned by a higher privileged process resulting in a denial of service.

An attacker, who gained elevated privileges via some other vulnerability, may be able to read data from Boot ROM resulting in a loss of system integrity.

A malicious or compromised UApp or ABL could potentially change the value that the ASP uses for its reserved DRAM, to one outside of the fenced area, potentially leading to data exposure.

Insufficient bound checks in System Management Unit (SMU) PCIe Hot Plug table may result in access/updates from/to invalid address space that could result in denial of service.

Insufficient DRAM address validation in System Management Unit (SMU) may result in a DMA (Direct Memory Access) read/write from/to invalid DRAM address that could result in denial of service.

hw: cpu: AMD CPUs may transiently execute beyond unconditional direct branch

Some AMD CPUs may transiently execute beyond unconditional direct branches, which may potentially result in data leakage.

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.

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.

Failure to verify the protocol in SMM may allow an attacker to control the protocol and modify SPI flash resulting in a potential arbitrary code execution.

hw: amd: Improper handling in the ASP kernel leading to loss of integrity

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.

hw: amd: Improper handling in ASP drivers 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.
