A flaw was found in the `drm/amdgpu` component of the Linux kernel. This vulnerability arises from improper memory handling where the `pm_genpd_remove()` function is not invoked before freeing `acp_genpd` memory. A local attacker could exploit this flaw, potentially leading to memory corruption, which may result in a denial of service or privilege escalation.
