On January 15th, AMD published the Security Bulletin AMD-SB-3027 [1]. AMD assumes that this security vulnerability is attributable to inadequate access controls, which prevents to set an internal configuration bit.

This attack could enable a malicious hypervisor to manipulate the configuration of the CPU-pipeline, which could potentially cause damage to the stack pointer within an SEV-SNP guest running on the sibling SMT (Simultaneous Multithreading) thread.

AMD published remedial measures for these security vulnerabilities.
