CVE-2026-53143: drm/amdkfd: Fix buffer overflow in SDMA queue checkpoint/restore on GFX11
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 31/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.15% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 16dad1fb0d783a4008de30e32d0038c393de05b1, 2c5b66c9b4057b385566940935ebc32f6e6ebfd2, 352ea59028ea48a6fff77f19ae28f98f71946a80; azl3 kernel 6.6.141.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.143.1-1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 16dad1fb0d783a4008de30e32d0038c393de05b1, 2c5b66c9b4057b385566940935ebc32f6e6ebfd2, 352ea59028ea48a6fff77f19ae28f98f71946a80; azl3 kernel 6.6.141.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.143.1-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
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)
