Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2023-53628)

Summary

Vulnerability in Kernel (CVE-2023-53628). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Mitigation: upgrade to 6.3.3 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu: drop gfx_v11_0_cp_ecc_error_irq_funcs

The gfx.cp_ecc_error_irq is retired in gfx11. In gfx_v11_0_hw_fini still
use amdgpu_irq_put to disable this interrupt, which caused the call trace
in this function.

v2:

Handle umc and gfx ras cases in separated patch
Retired the gfx_v11_0_cp_ecc_error_irq_funcs in gfx11

v3:

Improve the subject and code comments
Add judgment on gfx11 in the function of amdgpu_gfx_ras_late_init

v4:

Drop the define of CP_ME1_PIPE_INST_ADDR_INTERVAL and
SET_ECC_ME_PIPE_STATE which using in gfx_v11_0_set_cp_ecc_error_state
Check cp_ecc_error_irq.funcs rather than ip version for a more
sustainable life

v5:

Simplify judgment conditions

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

1
Identify exposure identify
```
grep -r 'Kernel' . | grep -v node_modules
```
リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で Kernel を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。
2
Apply patch patch
```
Upgrade Kernel to 6.3.3
```
ステージング環境で 6.3.3 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。
3
Post-deployment verification verify
```
Confirm patched version is live in production
```
パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
