Xen vCPU context-switch implementation process security bypass vulnerability
Xen is an open source virtual machine monitor product developed at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. A security vulnerability in Xen's vCPU context-switch implementation allows an attacker to exploit the vulnerability to compromise ASLR and other protection mechanisms...
PT-2017-11606
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Xen versions prior to 4.9 Description The issue arises from improper interaction between the vCPU context-switch implementation and the Memory Protection Extensions MPX and Protection Key PKU features in Xen. This interaction makes it easier f...
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS : linux vulnerabilities (USN-2996-1)
Jann Horn discovered that eCryptfs improperly attempted to use the mmap handler of a lower filesystem that did not implement one, causing a recursive page fault to occur. A local unprivileged attacker could use to cause a denial of service system crash or possibly execute arbitrary code with...
