CVE-2013-4551

Xen 4.2.x and 4.3.x, when nested virtualization is disabled, does not properly check the emulation paths for 1 VMLAUNCH and 2 VMRESUME, which allows local HVM guest users to cause a denial of service host crash via unspecified vectors related to "guest VMX instruction execution."...

CVE-2013-4551

Xen 4.2.x and 4.3.x, when nested virtualization is disabled, does not properly check the emulation paths for 1 VMLAUNCH and 2 VMRESUME, which allows local HVM guest users to cause a denial of service host crash via unspecified vectors related to "guest VMX instruction execution."...

Host crash due to guest VMX instruction execution

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Permission checks on the emulation paths intended for guests using nested virtualization for VMLAUNCH and VMRESUME were deferred too much. The hypervisor would try to use internal state which is not set up unless nested virtualization is actually enabled for a guest. IMPACT A...

qemu disk backend (qdisk) resource leak

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The qdisk PV disk backend in the qemu-xen flavour of qemu "upstream qemu" can be influenced by a malicious frontend to leak mapped grant references. IMPACT A malicious HVM guest can cause the backend domain to run out of grant references, leading to a DoS for any other domain...

CVE-2013-4355

Xen 4.3.x and earlier does not properly handle certain errors, which allows local HVM guests to obtain hypervisor stack memory via a 1 port or 2 memory mapped I/O write or 3 other unspecified operations related to addresses without associated memory...

CVE-2013-4361

The fbld instruction emulation in Xen 3.3.x through 4.3.x does not use the correct variable for the source effective address, which allows local HVM guests to obtain hypervisor stack information by reading the values used by the instruction...

Information leak through fbld instruction emulation

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The emulation of the fbld instruction which is used during I/O emulation uses the wrong variable for the source effective address. As a result, the actual address used is an uninitialised bit pattern from the stack. A malicious guest might be able to find out information about t...

Fedora 19 : xen-4.2.3-1.fc19 (2013-16357)

update to xen-4.2.3 includes fix for 'libxl partially sets up HVM passthrough even with disabled iommu' XSA-61, CVE-2013-4329 Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean a...

CVE-2013-4329

The xenlight library libxl in Xen 4.0.x through 4.2.x, when IOMMU is disabled, provides access to a busmastering-capable PCI passthrough device before the IOMMU setup is complete, which allows local HVM guest domains to gain privileges or cause a denial of service via a DMA instruction...

libxl partially sets up HVM passthrough even with disabled iommu

ISSUE DESCRIPTION With HVM domains, libxl's setup of PCI passthrough devices does the IOMMU setup after giving via the device model the guest access to the hardware and advertising it to the guest. If the IOMMU is disabled the overall setup fails, but after the device has been made available to t...
