A divide-by-zero flaw was found in the apic_get_tmcct() function in KVM’s Local Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller (LAPIC) implementation. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to crash the host. (CVE-2013-6367)

A memory corruption flaw was discovered in the way KVM handled virtual APIC accesses that crossed a page boundary. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2013-6368)

Note: The following procedure must be performed before this update will take effect :

  1. Stop all KVM guest virtual machines.

  2. Either reboot the hypervisor machine or, as the root user, remove (using β€˜modprobe -r [module]’) and reload (using β€˜modprobe [module]’) all of the following modules which are currently running (determined using β€˜lsmod’): kvm, ksm, kvm-intel or kvm-amd.

  3. Restart the KVM guest virtual machines.
