Bitdefender Hypervisor Introspection Code Execution Vulnerability

Bidefender Hypervisor Introspection HVI is a software from Bidefender Romania that checks the memory safety of running virtual machines at the Hypervisor layer using the VM self-test APIs of the Xen and KVM hypervisors. The software blocks code execution in abnormal memory by virtualizing the...

CVE-2020-27777

The CVE-2020-27777 issue concerns the Linux kernel on PowerPC: RTAS memory accesses in the userspace-to-kernel path allow a local, root-like user on a locked-down guest (Secure Boot) running on PowerVM or KVM/pseries to escalate privileges to the running kernel. Root cause is an improper handling...

USN-4659-2: Linux kernel regression

USN-4659-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. Unfortunately, that update introduced a regression in the software raid10 driver when used with fstrim that could lead to data corruption. This update fixes the problem. Original advisory details: It was discovered that a race condition existe...

USN-4659-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the binder IPC implementation in the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service system crash or possibly execute arbitrary code. CVE-2020-0423 Daniele Antonioli, Nils Ole...

CVE-2020-27152

A stack overflow flaw via an infinite loop condition issue was found in the KVM hypervisor of the Linux kernel. This flaw occurs while processing interrupts because the IRQ state is erroneously set. This flaw allows a guest user to crash the host kernel, resulting in a denial of service. The...

F5 Networks BIG-IP : BIG-IP crypto driver vulnerability (K43815022)

The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to 12.1.5.1 / 14.1.2.4 / 15.1.0. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K43815022 advisory. Under certain conditions, the Intel QuickAssist Technology QAT cryptography driver may produce a Traffic...

Amazon Linux AMI : kernel (ALAS-2020-1360)

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 4.14.173-106.229. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2020-1360 advisory. 2023-11-29: CVE-2020-27418 was added to this advisory. A stack buffer overflow issue was found in the getrawsocket...

Medium: kernel

Issue Overview: A stack buffer overflow issue was found in the getrawsocket routine of the Host kernel accelerator for virtio net vhost-net driver. It could occur while doing an ictolVHOSTNETSETBACKEND call, and retrieving socket name in a kernel stack variable via getrawsocket. A user able to...

CVE-2019-14821

An out-of-bounds access issue was found in the way Linux kernel's KVM hypervisor implements the Coalesced MMIO write operation. It operates on an MMIO ring buffer 'struct kvmcoalescedmmio' object, wherein write indices 'ring-first' and 'ring-last' value could be supplied by a host user-space...

DEBIAN-CVE-2020-2732

A flaw was discovered in the way that the KVM hypervisor handled instruction emulation for an L2 guest when nested virtualisation is enabled. Under some circumstances, an L2 guest may trick the L0 guest into accessing sensitive L1 resources that should be inaccessible to the L2 guest...
