Since\namdgpu_bo_create_kernel() does not zero-initialize the buffer, when a\nsingle PTE is written the TLB may speculatively load other uninitialized\nentries from the same cacheline. Those garbage entries can appear valid,\nand a subsequent write to another PTE in the same cacheline may cause the\nGPU to use a stale garbage PTE from the TLB.\n\nFix this by calling memset_io() to zero-initialize the GART table with\ngart_pte_flags immediately after allocation.\n\nUsing AMDGPU_GEM_CREATE_VRAM_CLEARED, SDMA-based clear will not work\nsince SDMA needs GART to be initialized to work.\n\n(cherry picked from commit d9af8263b82b6eaa60c5718e0c6631c5037e4b24)","published":"2026-07-19T11:16:39.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-19T20:19:17.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":8.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-457"],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00127,"percentile":0.02391,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.13%).
