Insufficient bounds checking in ASP (AMD Secure Processor) may allow for an out of bounds read in SMI (System Management Interface) mailbox checksum calculation triggering a data abort, resulting in a potential denial of service.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.62%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
