kernel: KVM: x86/mmu: race condition in direct_page_fault()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the KVM. A race condition in directpagefault allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service host OS crash or host OS memory corruption when nested virtualization and the TDP MMU are enabled...

kernel: KVM: nVMX: missing consistency checks for CR0 and CR4

A flaw was found in the KVM's Intel nested virtualization feature nVMX. The effective values of the guest CR0 and CR4 registers could differ from those included in the VMCS12. In rare circumstances i.e., kvmintel module loaded with parameters nested=1 and ept=0 this could allow a malicious guest ...

AZL-35596 CVE-2023-5088 affecting package qemu for versions less than 6.2.0-21

A bug in QEMU could cause a guest I/O operation otherwise addressed to an arbitrary disk offset to be targeted to offset 0 instead potentially overwriting the VM's boot code. This could be used, for example, by L2 guests with a virtual disk vdiskL2 stored on a virtual disk of an L1 vdiskL1...

Query of "Does Citrix Hypervisor support Nested Virtualization in VMs"...

kernel: KVM: nVMX: missing IBPB when exiting from nested guest can lead to Spectre v2 attacks

A flaw was found in the KVM's Intel nested virtualization feature nVMX. Since L1 and L2 shared branch prediction modes guest-user and guest-kernel, KVM did not protect indirect branches in L1 from steering by a malicious agent in L2. This could allow a malicious nested guest to carry out Spectre ...
