Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.12

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: SVM: Skip fastpath emulation on VM-Exit if next RIP isn’t valid Skip the WRMSR and HLT fastpaths in SVM’s VM-Exit handler if the next RIP isn’t valid, for example, because KVM is running with nrips=false. SVM must decode and...

CVE-2025-40038

CVE-2025-40038 affects the Linux kernel KVM/VMX SVM fastpath emulation for VM-Exit handling. The issue arises when the next RIP is not valid (e.g., nrips=false); KVM must decode and emulate the instruction to skip it, which requires reading guest memory. Reading guest memory through the emulator ...
