Before the Breach, There Was a Test Environment

Key Takeaways Most security failures do not begin where they are discovered. By the time risk becomes visible in production, the decisions that created it are often already sitting in test environments. “Temporary” test infrastructure often becomes permanent, creating persistent misconfigurations...

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...
