CVE Description

CVE-2022-23815

7.5 (High)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H

Improper bounds checking in APCB firmware may allow an attacker to perform an out of bounds write, corrupting the APCB entry, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

CVE-2023-20578

7.5 (High)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H

A TOCTOU (Time-Of-Check-Time-Of-Use) in SMM may allow an attacker with ring0 privileges and access to the BIOS menu or UEFI shell to modify the communications buffer, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.

CVE-2021-26344

7.2 (High)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H

An out of bounds memory write when processing the AMD PSP1 Configuration Block (APCB) could allow an attacker with access the ability to modify the BIOS image, and the ability to sign the resulting image, to potentially modify the APCB block resulting in arbitrary code execution.

CVE-2022-23817

7.0 (High) AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Insufficient checking of memory buffer in ASP Secure OS may allow an attacker with a malicious TA to read/write to the ASP Secure OS kernel virtual address space, potentially leading to privilege escalation.

CVE-2021-26367

5.7 (Medium)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H

A malicious attacker in x86 can misconfigure the Trusted Memory Regions (TMRs), which may allow the attacker to set an arbitrary address range for the TMR, potentially leading to a loss of integrity and availability.

CVE-2024-21981

5.7 (Medium)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N

Improper key usage control in AMD Secure Processor (ASP) may allow an attacker with local access who has gained arbitrary code execution privilege in ASP to extract ASP cryptographic keys, potentially resulting in loss of confidentiality and integrity.

CVE-2021-46746

5.2 (Medium)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H

Lack of stack protection exploit mechanisms in ASP Secure OS Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) may allow a privileged attacker with access to AMD signing keys to corrupt the return address, causing a stack-based buffer overrun, potentially leading to a denial of service.

CVE-2021-26387

3.9 (Low)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:L

Insufficient access controls in ASP kernel may allow a privileged attacker with access to AMD signing keys and the BIOS menu or UEFI shell to map DRAM regions in protected areas, potentially leading to a loss of platform integrity.

CVE-2021-46772

3.9 (Low)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:L

Insufficient input validation in the ABL may allow a privileged attacker with access to the BIOS menu or UEFI shell to tamper with the structure headers in SPI ROM causing an out of bounds memory read and write, potentially resulting in memory corruption or denial of service.

CVE-2023-20518

1.6 (Low)

AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N

Incomplete cleanup in the ASP may expose the Master Encryption Key (MEK) to a privileged attacker with access to the BIOS menu or UEFI shell and a memory exfiltration vulnerability, potentially resulting in loss of confidentiality.
