"Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Xen hypervisor.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
following problems :
- CVE-2016-7092 (XSA-185)
Jeremie Boutoille of Quarkslab and Shangcong Luan of
Alibaba discovered a flaw in the handling of L3
pagetable entries, allowing a malicious 32-bit PV guest
administrator can escalate their privilege to that of
the host.
- CVE-2016-7094 (XSA-187)
x86 HVM guests running with shadow paging use a subset
of the x86 emulator to handle the guest writing to its
own pagetables. Andrew Cooper of Citrix discovered that
there are situations a guest can provoke which result in
exceeding the space allocated for internal state. A
malicious HVM guest administrator can cause Xen to fail
a bug check, causing a denial of service to the host.
- CVE-2016-7154 (XSA-188)
Mikhail Gorobets of Advanced Threat Research, Intel
Security discovered a use after free flaw in the FIFO
event channel code. A malicious guest administrator can
crash the host, leading to a denial of service.
Arbitrary code execution (and therefore privilege
escalation), and information leaks, cannot be excluded."
