Execution unit scheduler contention may lead to a side channel vulnerability found on AMD CPU microarchitectures codenamed “Zen 1”, “Zen 2” and “Zen 3” that use simultaneous multithreading (SMT). By measuring the contention level on scheduler queues an attacker may potentially leak sensitive information.

Aliases in the branch predictor may cause some AMD processors to predict the wrong branch type potentially leading to information disclosure.

Mis-trained branch predictions for return instructions may allow arbitrary speculative code execution under certain microarchitecture-dependent conditions.

A potential vulnerability in some AMD processors using frequency scaling may allow an authenticated attacker to execute a timing attack to potentially enable information disclosure.

An attacker with root account privileges can load any legitimately signed firmware image into the Audio Co-Processor (ACP,) irrespective of the respective signing key being declared as usable for authenticating an ACP firmware image, potentially resulting in a denial of service.

A malformed SMI (System Management Interface) command may allow an attacker to establish a corrupted SMI Trigger Info data structure, potentially leading to out-of-bounds memory reads and writes when triggering an SMI resulting in a potential loss of resources.

A malicious or compromised UApp or ABL may coerce the bootloader into corrupting arbitrary memory potentially leading to loss of integrity of data.
