CVE-2025-71293 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu/ras: Move ras data alloc before bad page check In the rare event if eeprom has only invalid address entries, allocation is skipped, this causes following NULL pointer issue [ 547.103445] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010 [ 547.118897] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [ 547.130292] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [ 547.141689] PGD 124757067 P4D 0 [ 547.148842] Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI [ 547.158504] CPU: 49 PID: 8167 Comm: cat Tainted: G OE 6.8.0-38-generic #38-Ubuntu [ 547.177998] Hardware name: Supermicro AS -8126GS-TNMR/H14DSG-OD, BIOS 1.7 09/12/2025 [ 547.195178] RIP: 0010:amdgpu_ras_sysfs_badpages_read+0x2f2/0x5d0 [amdgpu] [ 547.210375] Code: e8 63 78 82 c0 45 31 d2 45 3b 75 08 48 8b 45 a0 73 44 44 89 f1 48 8b 7d 88 48 89 ca 48 c1 e2 05 48 29 ca 49 8b 4d 00 48 01 d1 <48> 83 79 10 00 74 17 49 63 f2 48 8b 49 08 41 83 c2 01 48 8d 34 76 [ 547.252045] RSP: 0018:ffa0000067287ac0 EFLAGS: 00010246 [ 547.263636] RAX: ff11000167c28130 RBX: ff11000127600000 RCX: 0000000000000000 [ 547.279467] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ff11000125b1c800 [ 547.295298] RBP: ffa0000067287b50 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 547.311129] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000000 [ 547.326959] R13: ff11000217b1de00 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000092 [ 547.342790] FS: 0000746e59d14740(0000) GS:ff11017dfda80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 547.360744] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 547.373489] CR2: 0000000000000010 CR3: 000000019585e001 CR4: 0000000000f71ef0 [ 547.389321] PKRU: 55555554 [ 547.395316] Call Trace: [ 547.400737] <TASK> [ 547.405386] ? show_regs+0x6d/0x80 [ 547.412929] ? __die+0x24/0x80 [ 547.419697] ? page_fault_oops+0x99/0x1b0 [ 547.428588] ? do_user_addr_fault+0x2ee/0x6b0 [ 547.438249] ? exc_page_fault+0x83/0x1b0 [ 547.446949] ? asm_exc_page_fault+0x27/0x30 [ 547.456225] ? amdgpu_ras_sysfs_badpages_read+0x2f2/0x5d0 [amdgpu] [ 547.470040] ? mas_wr_modify+0xcd/0x140 [ 547.478548] sysfs_kf_bin_read+0x63/0xb0 [ 547.487248] kernfs_file_read_iter+0xa1/0x190 [ 547.496909] kernfs_fop_read_iter+0x25/0x40 [ 547.506182] vfs_read+0x255/0x390 This also result in space left assigned to negative values. Moving data alloc call before bad page check resolves both the issue.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's AMD GPU driver can lead to a NULL pointer dereference. This issue occurs in the RAS (Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability) subsystem when the EEPROM contains only invalid address entries, causing the driver to skip necessary memory allocations. As a result, a subsequent read operation attempts to access a NULL pointer, triggering a kernel panic. The vulnerability has been addressed by modifying the order of operations to ensure that data allocations occur before any bad page checks are performed.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been fixed. Instructions for upgrading the kernel can be found in the official Linux kernel documentation.
