The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'kvm' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2020-1792 advisory. An out-of-bounds access issue, improper invalidation for page table updates, and TSX Asynchronous Abort condition may lead to a denial of service or potentially escalating privileges on the system

It operates on an MMIO ring buffer 'struct kvm_coalesced_mmio' object, wherein write indices 'ring->first' and 'ring->last' value could be supplied by a host user-space process. An unprivileged host user or process with access to '/dev/kvm' device could use this flaw to crash the host kernel, resulting in a denial of service or potentially escalating privileges on the system.(CVE-2019-14821)

Improper invalidation for page table updates by a virtual guest operating system for multiple Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service of the host system via local access.(CVE-2018-12207)

TSX Asynchronous Abort condition on some CPUs utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access.(CVE-2019-11135)");
