Secure memory corruption via malformed SMC call
Published Dec 16, 2025 · Updated Dec 16, 2025
Out-of-bounds write in AmpereOne UEFI-MM PCIe firmware allows local users to corrupt Secure-EL0 driver memory via a malformed SMC call. The PCIe handler processes an incorrectly formed SMC request and writes beyond memory mapped into its Secure-EL0 address space. Local high privileges are required; affected firmware is AC03 before 3.5.9.3, AC04 before 4.4.5.2, and AmpereOne M before 5.4.5.1.
