Kernel: Xen: Xsa-63: information leak via I/O instruction emulation

Xen 4.3.x and earlier does not properly handle certain errors, which allows local HVM guests to obtain hypervisor stack memory via a 1 port or 2 memory mapped I/O write or 3 other unspecified operations related to addresses without associated memory...

Guest triggerable AMD CPU erratum may cause host hang

ISSUE DESCRIPTION AMD CPU erratum 793 "Specific Combination of Writes to Write Combined Memory Types and Locked Instructions May Cause Core Hang" describes a situation under which a CPU core may hang. IMPACT A malicious guest administrator can mount a denial of service attack affecting the whole...

Hypercalls exposed to privilege rings 1 and 2 of HVM guests

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The privilege check applied to hypercall attempts by a HVM guest only refused access from ring 3; rings 1 and 2 were allowed through. IMPACT Code running in the intermediate privilege rings of HVM guest OSes may be able to elevate its privileges inside the guest by careful...

xen: information leak through outs instruction emulation (XSA-67)

The outs instruction emulation in Xen 3.1.x, 4.2.x, 4.3.x, and earlier, when using FS: or GS: segment override, uses an uninitialized variable as a segment base, which allows local 64-bit PV guests to obtain sensitive information hypervisor stack content via unspecified vectors related to stale...

Information leak through outs instruction emulation

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The emulation of the outs instruction for 64-bit PV guests uses an uninitialized variable as the segment base for the source data if an FS: or GS: segment override is used, and if the segment descriptor the respective non-null selector in the corresponding selector register poin...

qemu disk backend (qdisk) resource leak

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The qdisk PV disk backend in the qemu-xen flavour of qemu "upstream qemu" can be influenced by a malicious frontend to leak mapped grant references. IMPACT A malicious HVM guest can cause the backend domain to run out of grant references, leading to a DoS for any other domain...
