AMD Security Bulletin AMD-SB-3016, April 2026
Supermicro is aware of the security issue where an internal security audit found a potential vulnerability that could allow a malicious hypervisor to direct the IOMMU to write into Secure Encrypted Virtualization-Secure Nested Paging (SEV-SNP) guest memory. AMD released mitigations for this vulnerability. This vulnerability affects BIOS in Supermicro H12, H13, and H14 products.
CVE:
- CVE-2023-20585
- Severity: Medium
Findings:
Insufficient checks of the RMP on host buffer access in IOMMU may allow an attacker with privileges and a compromised hypervisor to trigger an out of bounds condition without RMP checks, resulting in a potential loss of confidential guest integrity.
Affected products:
Supermicro BIOS on the server H12, H13, and H14 motherboards.
