In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Handle protected guests properly in completehypercallexit Use is64bithypercall instead of is64bitmode to detect a 64-bit hypercall when completing said hypercall. For guests with protected state, e.g., SEV-ES and SEV-SN...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: KVM: x86/pmu: Disabled support for adaptive PEBS. Support for virtualizing adaptive PEBS has been discontinued. This is because KVM’s implementation is architecturally broken without an obvious or easy way to address this issu...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A out-of-bounds heap buffer access issue was identified in the ARM Generic Interrupt Controller emulator of QEMU, as of and including qemu 4.2.0 on the aarch64 platform. The issue arises because, when writing an interrupt ID to the controller’s memory area, it is not masked to be 4 bits wide. Thi...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virt/coco/sev-guest: Double-buffer messages The encryption algorithms read from and write to shared, unencrypted memory directly. This may lead to the leakage of information, as well as allowing the host to tamper with the...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A out-of-bounds write flaw was discovered in the UAS USB-attached SCSI device emulation in QEMU in versions prior to 6.2.0-rc0. The device uses the guest-provided stream number without proper checking, which can lead to out-of-bounds access to the UASDevice-data3 and UASDevice-status3 fields. A...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Chromium

The use of “after free” in the Guest View of Google Chrome before version 113.0.5672.126 allowed an attacker who convinced a user to install a malicious extension to potentially exploit heap corruption through a crafted HTML page. Chromium security severity: High...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/vfio-ap: The entire AP matrix is always filtered. The vfioapmdevfiltermatrix function is called whenever a new adapter or domain is assigned to the mdev. The purpose of this function is to update the guest’s AP configuration...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in virglrenderer

A heap-based buffer overflow in the vrendrenderertransferwriteiov function in vrendrenderer.c in virglrenderer from version 0.8.0 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service, or a QEMU guest-to-host escape and code execution, through VIRGLCCMDRESOURCEINLINEWRITE commands...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in the virtio-net device of QEMU. This issue occurs when flushing the TX operation in the virtionetflushtx function, provided that the guest has enabled VIRTIONETFHASHREPORT, VIRTIOFVERSION1, and VIRTIONETFMRGRXBUF. This could allow a malicious user to...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10, Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cxl: fixed a possible null-ptr-deref in cxlguestinitafu|adapter. If deviceregister fails in cxlregisterafu|adapter, the device is not added. In this case, deviceunregister cannot be called in the error path. Otherwise, a...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A double-free vulnerability was identified in QEMU virtio devices virtio-gpu, virtio-serial-bus, virtio-crypto. The memreentrancyguard flag does not provide sufficient protection against reentrancy issues related to DMA operations. This vulnerability could allow a malicious privileged guest user ...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

An integer overflow issue was identified in the vmxnet3 NIC emulator of QEMU for versions up to v5.2.0. This issue can occur if a guest provides invalid values for the rx/tx queue size or other NIC parameters. A privileged guest user may exploit this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host,...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

A flaw was discovered in KVM. An improper check in svmsetx2apicmsrinterception may allow direct access to the host’s x2apic MSRs when the guest resets its APIC, potentially leading to a denial-of-service condition...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A flaw was discovered in qemu. A host privilege escalation issue was identified in the virtio-fs shared file system daemon, where a privileged guest user can create a device-specific special file in the shared directory and use it to gain read/write access to host devices...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

The fix for XSA-365 includes the initialization of pointers so that subsequent cleanup code would not use uninitialized or stale values. However, this initialization went too far and may, under certain conditions, also overwrite pointers that need to be cleaned up. The lack of cleanup would resul...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.15

A flaw was discovered in KVM AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization SEV within the Linux kernel. A KVM guest that uses SEV-ES or SEV-SNP with multiple vCPUs can trigger a double fetch race condition vulnerability and invoke the VMGEXIT handler recursively. If an attacker manages to call the handler...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A reentrancy issue related to DMA operations led to a use-after-free error in the e1000e NIC emulation code in QEMU. This issue could allow a privileged guest user to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

A flaw was discovered in the KVM’s AMD code, responsible for supporting SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs during the processing of the VMCB virtual machine control block provided by the L1 guest, which is used to spawn or handle a nested guest L2. Due to improper validation of the “intct...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10, Linux

A flaw was discovered in KVM. When updating a guest’s page table entry, vmpgoff was incorrectly used as the offset to obtain the page’s pfn. Since vaddr and vmpgoff are controllable by user-mode processes, this flaw allows unprivileged local users on the host to write outside the userspace region...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A flaw was discovered in the implementation of the QEMU virtio-fs shared file system daemon virtiofsd. This flaw is strictly related to CVE-2018-13405. A local guest user can create files in directories shared by virtio-fs, with unintended group ownership. This occurs in a scenario where a...
