Software installed and run as a non-privileged user may conduct improper GPU system calls to cause mismanagement of resources reference counting creating a potential use after free scenario.
Improper resource management and reference counting on an internal resource caused scenario where potential write use after free was present.
Intermediate register values of secure workloads can be exfiltrated in workloads scheduled from applications running in the non-secure environment of a platform.
Software installed and run as a non-privileged user may conduct improper GPU system calls to trigger reads of stale data that can lead to kernel exceptions and write use-after-free.
The Use After Free common weakness enumeration was chosen as the stale data can include handles to resources in which the reference counts can become unbalanced. This can lead to the premature destruction of a resource while in use.
Software installed and run as a non-privileged user may conduct improper GPU system calls to gain write permissions to memory buffers exported as read-only.
This is caused by improper handling of the memory protections for the buffer resource.
Software installed and run as a non-privileged user may conduct improper GPU system calls to subvert GPU HW to write to arbitrary physical memory pages.
Kernel software installed and running inside a Guest VM may exploit memory shared with the GPU Firmware to write data outside the Guest's virtualised GPU memory.
