x86: mismatched mapcache metadata

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Some shadow paging errors paths will switch the page-tables without updating the currently running vCPU reference. This causes a mismatch between the loaded page-tables and the mapcache metadata which can lead to corruption of the mapcache. IMPACT Privilege escalation, Denial of...

Arm: Completion of memory accesses not guaranteed by completion of a TLBI

ISSUE DESCRIPTION A hardware issue has been identified in certain Arm CPU designs. A broadcast TLBI on one PE may complete before affected memory accesses on another PE are globally observed. This may permit bypass of Stage 1 translation, Stage 2 translation, or GPT protection. The erratum occurs...

domctl lock open to abuse

ISSUE DESCRIPTION To create and manage guests, domctl operations are used by the control domain, a possible Xenstore domain, or by a domain controlling a particular guest. Some of these operations may not be executed in parallel, so a system-wide lock is used. The way that lock is acquired is,...

kernel: Buffer overflow in drivers/xen/sys-hypervisor.c

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Xen hypervisor driver drivers/xen/sys-hypervisor.c. This flaw occurs because the HYPERVISORxenversionXENVERbuildid function returns a build ID that is not properly null-terminated. When the buildidshow function...

SUSE CVE-2026-45890

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen-netback: reject zero-queue configuration from guest A malicious or buggy Xen guest can write "0" to the xenbus key "multi-queue-num-queues". The connect function in the backend only validates the upper bound requestednumqueue...

CVE-2026-45890

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's xen-netback component. A malicious or buggy Xen guest can exploit this by writing a zero value to the 'multi-queue-num-queues' xenbus key. This improper input validation can trigger a warning in the kernel's memory allocation, leading to a guest-to-host Deni...
