kernel: KVM: cmpxchg_gpte can write to pfns outside the userspace region
A flaw was found in KVM. When updating a guest's page table entry, vmpgoff was improperly used as the offset to get the page's pfn. As vaddr and vmpgoff are controllable by user-mode processes, this flaw allows unprivileged local users on the host to write outside the userspace region and...
CLSA-2022-1669919330 kernel: Fix of CVE-2021-22543
KVM: do not allow mapping valid but non-reference-counted pages CVE-2021-22543...
kernel: KVM: LAPIC: Also cancel preemption timer during SET_LAPIC
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's KVM component related to the LAPIC during the guest reboot process. This issue arises when the SETLAPIC command is issued without exposing the tsc-deadline mode, leading to warnings and potential inconsistencies due to an unhandled preemption timer...
kernel: KVM: NULL pointer dereference in kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic_fast()
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s KVM when attempting to set a SynIC IRQ. This issue makes it possible for a misbehaving VMM to write to SYNIC/STIMER MSRs, causing a NULL pointer dereference. This flaw allows an unprivileged local attacker on the host to issue specific ioctl calls, causing a...

kernel: KVM: NULL pointer dereference in kvm_dirty_ring_push in virt/kvm/dirty_ring.c
A NULL pointer dereference issue was found in KVM when releasing a vCPU with dirty ring support enabled. This flaw allows an unprivileged local attacker on the host to issue specific ioctl calls, causing a kernel oops condition that results in a denial of service...
kernel: KVM: x86/mmu: Zap _all_ roots when unmapping gfn range in TDP MMU
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86/mmu: Zap all roots when unmapping gfn range in TDP MMU Zap both valid and invalid roots when zapping/unmapping a gfn range, as KVM must ensure it holds no references to the freed page after returning from the unmap...

kernel: KVM: VMX: Prevent RSB underflow before vmenter
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: VMX: Prevent RSB underflow before vmenter On VMX, there are some balanced returns between the time the guest's SPECCTRL value is written, and the vmenter. Balanced returns matched by a preceding call are usually ok, but it's...
