Technical details
An improper input validation vulnerability exists within the AMD Platform Management Framework (PMF) driver, classified as an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787). The flaw resides in how the driver processes input, allowing a local attacker with low privileges to read or write to memory locations outside of the intended buffer. This memory corruption can be leveraged to achieve local privilege escalation (LPE). The attack requires local access but no user interaction. AMD has addressed this in security bulletin AMD-SB-4015.
