CVE-2024-53060

Local service interruption via NULL ATIF object dereference

Published Nov 19, 2024 · Updated May 11, 2026

NULL pointer dereference in the Linux kernel's amdgpu driver allows local users to interrupt service through an ACPI error path. In amdgpu_acpi.c, an AE_NOT_FOUND result from acpi_evaluate_object leaves buffer.pointer NULL, but the ATIF path dereferences that pointer. Reachability requires AMD GPU hardware and firmware without ATIF support; triggering the path can crash the kernel, with no reported data access or code execution.
