CVE-2025-62620: AMD EPYC improper validation in ring buffer queue status

CVE-2025-62620 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-10

AMD EPYC processors use a ring buffer to manage queue status pages in virtualized environments. An attacker with high privileges on a guest virtual machine could exploit improper validation to reclaim the ring buffer queue status page, potentially compromising the memory integrity of other guests running on the same host.

Vendors: Amd.

Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the ring buffer queue status page handling due to improper validation of unsafe equivalence in input. An attacker with high privilege level (guest-level access) can exploit this to reclaim the queue status page, leading to potential loss of guest memory integrity in shared virtualization scenarios. This is a logic flaw in input validation rather than a memory safety issue.
