AMD PMF OOB Read Exposes Arbitrary Memory
CVE-2025-29937 Published on May 15, 2026

An out of bounds read within the AMD Platform Management Framework (PMF) could allow an attacker to trigger a read of an arbitrary memory location potentially resulting in loss of availability or confidentiality.

Weakness Type

Out-of-bounds Read

The software reads data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer. Typically, this can allow attackers to read sensitive information from other memory locations or cause a crash. A crash can occur when the code reads a variable amount of data and assumes that a sentinel exists to stop the read operation, such as a NUL in a string. The expected sentinel might not be located in the out-of-bounds memory, causing excessive data to be read, leading to a segmentation fault or a buffer overflow. The software may modify an index or perform pointer arithmetic that references a memory location that is outside of the boundaries of the buffer. A subsequent read operation then produces undefined or unexpected results.
