CVE-2022-49883

CVE-2022-49883 is a Linux kernel KVM x86 vulnerability related to SMM handling. The issue arises because the number of general purpose registers (GPRs) used for the SMRAM image depends on the image format. On 64‑bit hosts, if the guest lacks X86_FEATURE_LM, KVM may access 16 GPRs for a 32‑bit SMR...

CVE-2022-49882

CVE-2022-49882 concerns the Linux kernel KVM gfn_to_pfn_cache handling. The issue arises when the cache is inactive but refreshed without verifying the active flag, potentially leaving a valid but inactive cache and enabling use-after-free scenarios (e.g., dereferencing NULL kernel pointers or mi...

CVE-2022-49774

CVE-2022-49774 affects the Linux kernel (KVM: x86/xen) and concerns eventfd error handling in kvm_xen_eventfd_assign(). The root cause was calling eventfd_ctx_put() on error; a patch introduces a new goto target to handle the error instead. The documents confirm the fix has been applied and refer...
