CVE-2025-62621: AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization firmware expected behavior violation in RMP

CVE-2025-62621 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-10

AMD's Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) is a firmware feature that encrypts virtual machine memory to protect guest data from a potentially compromised hypervisor. A flaw in the Reverse Map Table (RMP) protection mechanism could allow a malicious hypervisor to compromise guest memory integrity in SEV-SNP systems, undermining the core security guarantee of guest isolation.

Technologies: Amd Secure Encrypted Virtualization firmware. Vendors: Amd.

Technical details

This vulnerability is an expected behavior violation in AMD SEV firmware affecting the Reverse Map Table (RMP) enforcement mechanism. A malicious hypervisor can bypass RMP protections through an unspecified attack vector, potentially compromising SEV-SNP guest memory integrity. The issue requires hypervisor-level control and affects the firmware-level enforcement of memory access controls.
