CVE-2026-72284

A flaw was found in the Kernel-based Virtual Machine KVM subsystem of the Linux kernel, specifically in the handling of Paravirtualized End Of Interrupt PV EOI for x86 virtual CPUs. A local attacker in a guest virtual machine could exploit a race condition where a virtual CPU disables PV EOIs aft...

CVE-2026-72284

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Ignore pending PV EOI if the vCPU has since disabled PV EOIs Ignore KVM's internal "service pending PV EOI" request if the vCPU has disabled PV EOIs since the request was made. Asserting that PV EOIs are enabled can fai...

CVE-2026-72284

CVE-2026-72284 affects the Linux kernel KVM on x86, where a logic error in arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c (line ~3338) caused PV EOIs to be ignored if the vCPU later disables PV EOIs, potentially triggering a kernel oops (invalid opcode) during KVM vCPU ioctls. The vulnerability is locally exploitable as p...
