Linux kernel 安全漏洞

Linux kernel is the kernel used by the Linux Foundation's open source operating system, Linux, of which KVM is a kernel-based virtual machine. Linux kernel suffers from a denial-of-service vulnerability, which stems from the possibility that the KVM subsystem may mishandle a memory error that...

USN-5165-1 linux-oem-5.14 vulnerabilities

It was discovered that the NFC subsystem in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability in its NFC Controller Interface NCI implementation. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service system crash or execute arbitrary code. CVE-2021-3760 It was discovered...

kernel: powerpc: KVM guest OS users can cause host OS memory corruption

A flaw was found on the Linux kernel. On the PowerPC platform, the KVM guest allows the OS users to cause host OS memory corruption via rtasargs.nargs. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability...

kernel: SVM nested virtualization issue in KVM (AVIC support)

A flaw was found in the KVM's AMD code for supporting SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs when processing the VMCB virtual machine control block provided by the L1 guest to spawn/handle a nested guest L2. Due to improper validation of the "intctl" field, this issue could allow a malicious ...
