x86: Race condition in Xen mapping code

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The Xen code handling the updating of the hypervisor's own pagetables tries to use 2MiB and 1GiB superpages as much as possible to maximize TLB efficiency. Some of the operations for checking and coalescing superpages take non-negligible amount of time; to avoid potential lock...

FreeBSD -- bhyve privilege escalation via VMCS access

Problem Description: AMD and Intel CPUs support hardware virtualization using specialized data structures that control various aspects of guest operation. These are the Virtual Machine Control Structure VMCS on Intel CPUs, and the Virtual Machine Control Block VMCB on AMD CPUs. Insufficient acces...

Intel, ARM, IBM, AMD Processors Vulnerable to New Side-Channel Attacks

It turns out that the root cause behind several previously disclosed speculative execution attacks against modern processors, such as Meltdown and Foreshadow, was misattributed to 'prefetching effect,' resulting in hardware vendors releasing incomplete mitigations and countermeasures. Sharing its...

CVE-2019-19338

A flaw was found in the fix for CVE-2019-11135, in the Linux upstream kernel versions before 5.5 where, the way Intel CPUs handle speculative execution of instructions when a TSX Asynchronous Abort TAA error occurs. When a guest is running on a host CPU affected by the TAA flaw TAANO=0, but is no...

Design/Logic Flaw

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing Intel guest OS users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service because of non-atomic modification of a live EPT PTE. When mapping guest EPT nested paging tables, Xen would in some circumstances use a series of non-atomic bitfield write...
