CVE-2023-53193
Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's amdgpu graphics driver. A local user with low privileges could exploit this vulnerability due to the improper use of the amdgpu_irq_put function within the gmc_v10_0_hw_fini component. This flaw leads to a call trace, which can result in a system crash and a Denial of Service (DoS).
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart; Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands; Modify Memory; Other
Depending on the locking being used, an unlock operation might not have any adverse effects. When effects exist, the most common consequence will be a corruption of the state of the product, possibly leading to a crash or exit; depending on the implementation of the unlocking, memory corruption or code execution could occur.
