Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu/vcn: set no_user_fence for VCN v5.0.0 enc ring VCN encoder and decoder rings do not support 64-bit user fence writes, reject CS submissions with user fences. (cherry picked from commit 49b1fbbb5a071197ee71e2d70959b1cb29bdc317) A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AMDGPU Video Core Next (VCN) component.
