FreeBSD : FreeBSD -- bhyve(8) privileged guest escape via TPM device passthrough (56d76414-6b50-11ef-9a62-002590c1f29c)

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 56d76414-6b50-11ef-9a62-002590c1f29c advisory. bhyve can be configured to provide access to the host's TPM device, where it passes the communication...

CVE-2024-41928 bhyve(8) privileged guest escape via TPM device passthrough

Malicious software running in a guest VM can exploit the buffer overflow to achieve code execution on the host in the bhyve userspace process, which typically runs as root. Note that bhyve runs in a Capsicum sandbox, so malicious code is constrained by the capabilities available to the bhyve...

FreeBSD -- bhyve(8) privileged guest escape via TPM device passthrough

Problem Description: bhyve can be configured to provide access to the host's TPM device, where it passes the communication through an emulated device provided to the guest. This may be performed on the command-line by starting bhyve with the -l tpm,passthru,/dev/tpmX parameters. The MMIO handler...
