Thank you, Salvatore.

I'd never seen a CVE before on a ROCm package, so it's taken some time
to understand the process. The bug was fixed upstream in ROCm 7.14. I've
confirmed the commit for the upstream fix [1], but have not yet verified
if this bug affects ROCm 5.4.3, or if it is feasible to backport the fix.

Sincerely,
Cory Bloor
