In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: Don't WARN if memory is dirtied without a vCPU when the VM is dying When marking a page dirty, complain about not having a running/loaded vCPU if and only if the VM is still alive, i.e. its refcount is non-zero. This will...

CVE-2026-53200

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Kernel-based Virtual Machine KVM for ARM64 architectures. This vulnerability arises from incorrect handling of the Execute Never XN bit, a memory protection feature, when the FEATXNX feature is not enabled. This error can lead to execute permissions being...

CVE-2026-53277

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: arm64: Take the SRCU lock for page table walks in fault injection and AT emulation walks1 and kvmwalknesteds2 expect to be called while holding kvm-srcu to guard against memslot changes. While this is generally the case,...

CVE-2026-53200

The CVE refers to the Linux kernel KVM on ARM64 where the XN bit handling was broken when FEAT_XNX is not enabled. Specifically, a FIELD_PREP() mask used to clear XN[0] manipulated the wrong bit, unconditionally granting execute permissions. The issue is resolved by correcting the bit manipulatio...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RISC-V: KVM – Writing hgatp registers with valid mode bits According to the RISC-V Privileged Architecture Specification, when MODE=Bare is selected, software must write zero to the remaining fields of hgatp. We have previously...

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 Linux

A issue was discovered in Linux: improper handling of VMIO|VMPFNMAP vmas in KVM can bypass RO checks and cause pages to be freed while still accessible by the VMM and guest. This allows users who have the ability to start and control a VM to read/write random pages of memory, potentially leading ...
