In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: Explicitly verify that the target vCPU is online in kvmgetvcpu. It is necessary to explicitly verify that the target vCPU is fully online prior to clamping the index in kvmgetvcpu. If the index is “bad”, the nospec clamping...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 6.1, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Load DR6 with the guest value only before entering the .vcpurun loop. Move the conditional loading of hardware DR6 with the guest’s DR6 value out of the core .vcpurun loop to fix a bug where KVM may load hardware with a...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Resets the IRTE to host control if the new route cannot be posted. Restores an IRTE back to host control either remapped or in MSI mode if the new GSI route prevents direct posting of the IRQ to a vCPU, regardless of th...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Forcibly leave nested virtualization mode when SMM state is toggled The nested virtualization mode is forcibly exited if the user space toggles the SMM state using KVMSETVCPUEVENTS or KVMSYNCX86EVENTS. If the user space...

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 ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: fix in setting the fpc register The function kvmarchvcpuioctlsetfpu allows for setting the floating-point control fpc register of a guest CPU. The new value is tested for validity by temporarily loading it into the fpc...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/intel: KVM: The mask PEBSENABLE must be loaded for guests with a specified vCPU value. When generating the MSRIA32PEBSENABLE value that will be loaded on the VM-Entry to a KVM guest, the value should be masked with the...
