CVE-2026-53143 high CVSS 7.8

Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-53143)

Summary

Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-53143). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

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

drm/amdkfd: Fix buffer overflow in SDMA queue checkpoint/restore on GFX11

The v11 MQD manager incorrectly assigned the CP-compute variants of
checkpoint_mqd/restore_mqd for KFD_MQD_TYPE_SDMA queues. These functions
use sizeof(struct v11_compute_mqd) (2048 bytes) instead of sizeof(struct
v11_sdma_mqd) (512 bytes), causing a 1536-byte overflow.

During CRIU checkpoint of an SDMA queue on Navi3x:

  • checkpoint_mqd() reads 2048 bytes from a 512-byte SDMA MQD buffer,
    leaking 1536 bytes of adjacent GTT memory to userspace

During CRIU restore:

  • restore_mqd() writes 2048 bytes into a 512-byte SDMA MQD buffer,
    corrupting 1536 bytes of adjacent GTT memory (often the ring buffer
    or neighboring MQDs)

This is a copy-paste regression unique to v11. All other ASIC backends
(cik, vi, v9, v10, v12) correctly use the SDMA-specific variants.

Add checkpoint_mqd_sdma() and restore_mqd_sdma() functions that properly
handle the smaller v11_sdma_mqd structure, matching the pattern used in
other MQD managers.

(cherry picked from commit 6fa41db7ffdec97d62433adf03b7b9b759af8c2c)
