Exploitation requires submitting a crafted AMDGPU command stream through DRM_IOCTL_AMDGPU_CS on a local /dev/dri/renderD* device; there is no network, adjacent-radio, or physical-access path to the vulnerable VCN v4.0 unified encoder ring handling.\nAC:L - An attacker with render-node access can deterministically submit a CS containing an AMDGPU_CHUNK_ID_FENCE chunk targeting the VCN encoder ring; no race, special timing, or victim state beyond having a VCN 4.0-capable AMDGPU is required.\nPR:L - The path is reachable by any local user who can open the DRM render node (typically membership in the render/video group on desktops, workstations, and cloud GPU VMs); it does not require real root in the init namespace.\nUI:N - Triggering the bug is fully programmatic via ioctl-based CS submission and does not require any victim to open files, mount filesystems, or perform other interactive actions.\nS:U - Impact is confined to the AMDGPU/VCN driver and GPU resources of the submitting security context; it does not cross a VM, container, or IOMMU security boundary to affect a different authority.\nC:H - Without the no_user_fence guard, amdgpu_ib_commit emits a 64-bit user fence (AMDGPU_FENCE_FLAG_64BIT) on a ring whose emit_fence path only supports 32-bit fence writes, causing the VCN hardware to perform an unvalidated GPU DMA write that can corrupt adjacent GPU-mapped memory and be leveraged for information disclosure.\nI:H - The same rogue GPU-initiated fence write is a memory-corruption primitive that can modify GPU-accessible buffers (including shared dma-buf mappings) outside the intended 8-byte fence field, enabling integrity violations and potential further exploitation.\nA:H - Malformed fence/trap commands on the VCN unified encoder ring can hang or fault the VCN block and force GPU/driver reset, denying graphics and compute availability to all users of the device on shared workstations and servers."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/vcn_v4_0.c"], "versions": [{"version": "8da1170a16e4d4b49fa07d1f75ad480847ff7eca", "lessThan": "772f83fc70b797ac88d696671780eaf175cc7f31", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "8da1170a16e4d4b49fa07d1f75ad480847ff7eca", "lessThan": "525cc9df654365c147ae61e5562cf599ea2257f7", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "8da1170a16e4d4b49fa07d1f75ad480847ff7eca", "lessThan": "d8df8918677136b018d71d0b94a1f6b816715946", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "8da1170a16e4d4b49fa07d1f75ad480847ff7eca", "lessThan": "1286b6872de0aee1feeeaa6dbac86369806de9a5", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "8da1170a16e4d4b49fa07d1f75ad480847ff7eca", "lessThan": "6bdd2ed6458d35c368fbe9550a4d7f342abd3a92", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "8da1170a16e4d4b49fa07d1f75ad480847ff7eca", "lessThan": "51f694221047c84fa185be98210eb2c354ffb8c6", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/vcn_v4_0.c"], "versions": [{"version": "5.19", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "5.19", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.1.191", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.6.160", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.114", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.33", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.0.10", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.0.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.1", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "6.1.191"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.160"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.114"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.33"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.10"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.19", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/772f83fc70b797ac88d696671780eaf175cc7f31"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/525cc9df654365c147ae61e5562cf599ea2257f7"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d8df8918677136b018d71d0b94a1f6b816715946"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1286b6872de0aee1feeeaa6dbac86369806de9a5"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6bdd2ed6458d35c368fbe9550a4d7f342abd3a92"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/51f694221047c84fa185be98210eb2c354ffb8c6"}], "title": "drm/amdgpu/vcn: set no_user_fence for VCN v4.0 enc ring", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}, "adp": [{"metrics": [{"other": {"type": "ssvc", "content": {"id": "CVE-2026-63853", "role": "CISA Coordinator", "options": [{"Exploitation": "none"}, {"Automatable": "no"}, {"Technical Impact": "total"}], "version": "2.0.3", "timestamp": "2026-10-16T15:32:17.901838Z"}}}], "problemTypes": [{"descriptions": [{"lang": "en", "type": "CWE", "cweId": "CWE-20", "description": "CWE-20 Improper Input Validation"}]}], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": {"orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2026-10-19T20:07:51.666Z"}}]}}
