CVE-2019-18425

A flaw was in Xen. Guest specified limits for descriptor table access, during PV guest operations, were found to not be enforced. An attacker with the ability to emulate 32-bit guest user mode calls through call gates, would be allowed to install and then use descriptors of their choice as long a...

BSD i386_set_ldt syscall does not appropriately validate call gate targets

Overview There are a set of kernel interfaces called "call gates" which are code primitives used to build system-level calls into an operating system's kernel. A subset of these "calls gates" may be able to be manipulated on some operating systems which use improper privilege checking when...
