CVE-2026-43214 KVM: x86: Add SRCU protection for reading PDPTRs in __get_sregs2()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Add SRCU protection for reading PDPTRs in getsregs2 Add SRCU read-side protection when reading PDPTR registers in getsregs2. Reading PDPTRs may trigger access to guest memory: kvmpdptrread - svmcachereg - loadpdptrs -...

CVE-2026-43133

Summary: CVE-2026-43133 affects Linux kernel KVM’s nested virtualization (nSVM). When an L2 guest executes VMSAVE/VMLOAD and is not intercepted by L1, KVM may incorrectly use vmcb02 instead of vmcb01 for guest state handling due to an oversight in VMLOAD/VMSAVE emulation after a patch. The root c...

kernel: Linux kernel KVM: Privilege escalation or denial of service due to improper shadow page table entry handling

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Kernel-based Virtual Machine KVM component. A local attacker with privileges on the host system could exploit a vulnerability in how KVM handles shadow page table entries SPTEs during memory-mapped I/O MMIO operations. By manipulating guest page table entrie...

CVE-2026-31592

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM Kernel-based Virtual Machine subsystem. A local user could exploit a concurrency issue by failing to properly protect the sevmemencregisterregion function with the kvm-lock. This can lead to an unstable state if KVM initialization fails, resulting in a...

CVE-2026-31569

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Kernel-based Virtual Machine KVM component. When a specific internal data structure, known as EIOINTC's coremap, is empty, the system incorrectly processes a processor ID. This error can lead to an out-of-bounds memory access, meaning the system tries to rea...
