Description Nick Tait 2024-02-08 17:32:02 UTC 
A flaw found for the AMD CPU. A heap overflow in SMM module may allow an attacker with access to a second vulnerability that enables writing to SPI flash, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.

Created linux-firmware tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 2264235]
Comment 6 Peter Robinson 2024-02-25 14:06:23 UTC 
This is a UEFI firmware update from the device vendor, not an update in linux-firmware, these should be closed out as such.
