In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: xen/events: The close evtchn operation is performed after mapping cleanup is completed. shutdownpirq and startuppirq do not take the irqmappingupdatelock, as they cannot do so due to lock inversion. Both functions are called...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1, Linux, Linux 5.15

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...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Xen

A issue was discovered in Xen through version 4.11.x, allowing users of x86 Intel HVM guest operating systems to obtain unintended read/write DMA access. This could potentially lead to a denial of service host operating system crash or privilege escalation. This issue arises because a backport...

Astra Linux – Vulnerabilities in Linux 5.10, Linux 5.15, Linux 6.1

Closing an event channel in the Linux kernel can lead to a deadlock. This occurs when the closure operation is performed in parallel with an unrelated Xen console action, and the handling of a Xen console interrupt occurs in a unprivileged guest. The closure of an event channel is triggered, for...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86/xen: Initialize Xen timers only once A check for existing xen timers was added before initializing a new timer. Currently, the kvmxeninittimer function is called every time KVMXENVCPUATTRTYPETIMER is used. This causes th...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen: Speed up grant-table reclaim When a grant entry is still in use by the remote domain, Linux must put it on a deferred list. Normally, this list is very short, because the PV network and block protocols expect the backend to...
