CVE-2014-8480

The instruction decoder in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.18-rc2 lacks intended decoder-table flags for certain RIP-relative instructions, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service NULL pointer dereference and host OS crash via a crafted...

CVE-2014-8481

The instruction decoder in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.18-rc2 does not properly handle invalid instructions, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service NULL pointer dereference and host OS crash via a crafted application that triggers 1 a...

CVE-2014-8481

CVE-2014-8481 affects the Linux kernel KVM arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c; the instruction decoder mishandles invalid instructions, allowing guest OS users to trigger a NULL pointer dereference and host crash via a crafted application that either fetches an invalid instruction or uses too many bytes. Roo...

CVE-2014-3647

CVE-2014-3647 affects the Linux kernel KVM emulation path: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c. The root cause is improper handling of RIP changes during instruction emulation, enabling a local guest OS user to crash the guest (DoS) with a crafted application in kernels up to 3.17.2. The provided connected do...

CVE-2014-3611

Race condition in the kvmmigratepittimer function in arch/x86/kvm/i8254.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service host OS crash by leveraging incorrect PIT emulation...

CVE-2014-3645

arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.12 does not have an exit handler for the INVEPT instruction, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service guest OS crash via a crafted application...

CVE-2014-3690

arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.17.2 on Intel processors does not ensure that the value in the CR4 control register remains the same after a VM entry, which allows host OS users to kill arbitrary processes or cause a denial of service system disruption by...

CVE-2014-3647
