About this tag
CVE-2026-23213 is a vulnerability affecting AMD GPUs in Linux systems, specifically related to the kernel graphics driver. The issue involves a race condition during SMU Mode 1 resets where MMIO register access can occur while the ASIC is unreachable over PCIe, potentially leading to incomplete transactions, NMI panics, or system hangs. The fix, implemented in the drm/amd/pm subsystem, introduces a no_hw_access flag and a memory barrier to prevent concurrent access during the reset window. This tag covers discussions about the vulnerability, its operational impact on AMD GPU users, and the kernel patch that resolves the problem.
