A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's AMD GPU driver, specifically in the SDMA version 4.2.2, has been addressed. This issue was causing a general protection fault, likely due to a non-canonical address. The fault occurred during the software finalization process of the SDMA, where the firmware release was not properly managed, leading to the protection fault.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been fixed. The specific commit addressing this issue is available in the Linux kernel stable tree.
