Kernel: kvm: nVMX: L2 guest may trick the L0 hypervisor to access sensitive L1 resources

A flaw was found in the way KVM hypervisor handled instruction emulation for the L2 guest when nested=1 virtualization is enabled. In the instruction emulation, the L2 guest could trick the L0 hypervisor into accessing sensitive bits of the L1 hypervisor. An L2 guest could use this flaw to...

CVE-2018-12904

In arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel before 4.17.2, when nested virtualization is used, local attackers could cause L1 KVM guests to VMEXIT, potentially allowing privilege escalations and denial of service attacks due to lack of checking of CPL...
