Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

A issue was discovered in the Linux kernel versions 3.2 through 5.10.16, as used by Xen. Grant mapping operations often occur during batch hypercalls, where multiple operations are performed in a single hypercall. The success or failure of each operation is reported to the backend driver, and the...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86, relocs: Ignore relocations in the .notes section. When building with CONFIGXENPV=y, .text symbols are emitted into the .notes section so that Xen can find the “startupxen” entry point. This information is used before booting...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen/privcmd: fixed the double-free issue caused by VMA splitting privcmdvmops defines .close privcmdclose, but neither .maysplit nor .open. When the user space performs a partial munmap on a privcmd mapping, the kernel splits the...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/xen-netback: This issue prevents a Use-after-Free UAF condition in xenvifFlushHash. During the listforeachentryrcu iteration, when calling xenvifFlushHash, kfreercu does not exist within the rcu read critical section...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

A issue was discovered in Xen through version 4.14.x. Some operating systems, such as Linux, FreeBSD, and NetBSD, process watch events using a single thread. If these events are received faster than the thread can handle them, they will be queued up. Since the queue is unbounded, a guest system m...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: soc: qcom: cmd-db: Maps shared memory as WC, not WB. Linux does not write to the cmd-db region. This memory region is protected from writing by XPU. XPU may sometimes falsely detect a clean cache eviction as a “write” to the...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen/gntdev: Accommodation for VMA splitting Prior to this commit, the gntdev driver code did not handle the following scenario correctly with paravirtualized PV Xen domains: The user process sets up a gntdev mapping consisting of...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

A issue was discovered in the Linux kernel versions 2.6.39 through 5.10.16, as used in Xen. The block, net, and SCSI backends consider certain errors as ordinary bugs, which are deliberately designed to cause kernel crashes. For errors that may be influenced by guests such as memory exhaustion...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Buffer overflow in drivers/xen/sys-hypervisor.c The build ID returned by HYPERVISORxenversionXENVERbuildid is neither terminated with NUL nor a string. The first cause a buffer overflow because the sprintf function in buildidshow...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/xen: Remove the USERGSSYSRET64 paravirt call. This change is committed as afd30525a659ac0ae0904f0cb4a2ca75522c3123 in the upstream code. USERGSSYSRET64 is used to return from a syscall via SYSRET. However, a Xen PV guest will...
