CVE-2012-4461

The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.6.9, when running on hosts that use qemu userspace without XSAVE, allows local users to cause a denial of service kernel OOPS by using the KVMSETSREGS ioctl to set the X86CR4OSXSAVE bit in the guest cr4 register, then calling the KVMRUN ioctl...

CVE-2012-4461

CVE-2012-4461 overview: The Linux kernel KVM subsystem (pre-3.6.9) on hosts using qemu userspace without XSAVE is vulnerable. A local attacker can trigger a denial of service (kernel OOPS) by calling KVM_SET_SREGS to enable the X86_CR4_OSXSAVE bit in the guest CR4, then issuing KVM_RUN. The conne...

CVE-2012-2137

CVE-2012-2137 describes a buffer overflow in virt/kvm/irq_comm.c within the Linux kernel's KVM subsystem, exploitable by local users on kernel versions before 3.2.24. The flaw enables denial of service (crash) and potentially arbitrary code execution via vectors involving Message Signaled Interru...
