Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's crypto: ccp module. A local user could exploit a vulnerability where the system attempts to copy a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) to userspace even after a Platform Security Processor (PSP) command has failed. This can lead to a slab-out-of-bounds write, causing an overflow of the kernel-allocated buffer and potentially leaking sensitive kernel data to the user.
Statement
CSR buffers must not be copied to userspace when the underlying PSP CSR command did not succeed; upstream blocks the copy on failure. Red Hat classifies this as confidentiality hardening for the AMD CCP interface.
