Title
drm/amdkfd: Add bounds check for CRAT subtype length
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdkfd: Add bounds check for CRAT subtype length The CRAT parser validates that the subtype header fits within the image, but does not verify that the advertised subtype length fits. A malformed CRAT table with an oversized length field causes out-of-bounds reads when kfd_parse_subtype() casts the header to specific subtype structures. Add validation that sub_type_hdr + length does not exceed the image boundary before parsing the subtype contents. (cherry picked from commit 48e1d1e6e8798aef0312e68d8e586021b5b3cf4d)

On affected kernels, ACPI CRAT is copied from firmware via acpi_get_table(\"CRAT\"); there is no network, ioctl, or /dev/kfd path to this parser.\nAC:L - A malicious ACPI CRAT can set subtype length so only the 8-byte generic header fits in the remaining image while kfd_parse_subtype() casts to larger structs (cache, CU, iolink). The out-of-bounds read is deterministic at boot with no races or attacker-uncontrollable memory layout.\nPR:N - Exploitation requires only a crafted ACPI CRAT in platform firmware/UEFI parsed automatically at boot via kfd_create_crat_image_acpi(). No Linux user account, capability, or /dev/kfd access is needed; only control of firmware-supplied CRAT contents before KFD topology initialization.\nUI:N - CRAT parsing occurs automatically during kernel boot and amdgpu/KFD module initialization when topology is built. No user mount, file open, or other discretionary action is required beyond powering on hardware that contains the malicious ACPI table.\nS:U - Impact is confined to kernel heap out-of-bounds reads and corrupted topology metadata within the host kernel security domain. This is not a guest/host VM escape, container sandbox breakout, or IOMMU/DMA boundary bypass.\nC:H - kfd_parse_subtype() casts the generic header to large subtype structures and reads past the CRAT buffer boundary (e.g., cache sibling_map[32], iolink, computeunit fields). Leaked adjacent kernel heap bytes populate topology objects exposed via world-readable /sys/class/kfd/kfd/topology/ attributes (0444).\nI:L - Out-of-bounds read values (sizes, proximity domains, sibling maps, bandwidth fields) are stored into kmalloc\u0027d kernel topology structures (mem_props, cache_props, io_link_props), modifying kernel metadata with attacker-influenced data derived from reads past the allocation.\nA:H - Out-of-bounds reads during early init can dereference unmapped pages and trigger a kernel oops or panic during amdgpu/KFD bring-up. Related malformed-CRAT parser bugs at the same code path also cause infinite-loop denial of service, confirming high availability impact from CRAT parsing flaws."
