Denial Of Service (DoS)

kernel is vulnerable to denial of service. A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's KVM hypervisor implementation emulated the syscall instruction for 32-bit guests. An unprivileged guest user could trigger this flaw to crash the guest...

Denial Of Service

kernel is vulnerable to denial of service. It was found that the kvmvmioctlassigndevice function in the KVM subsystem of a Linux kernel did not check if the user requesting device assignment was privileged or not. A member of the kvm group on the host could assign unused PCI devices, or even...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

kernel is vulnerable to denial of service. A flaw was found in the way the KVM subsystem of a Linux kernel handled PIT Programmable Interval Timer IRQs interrupt requests when there was no virtual interrupt controller set up. A malicious user in the kvm group on the host could force this situatio...

Arbitrary Code Execution

qemu-kvm is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability exists as a flaw was found in the way qemu-kvm handled VSCATR messages when a guest was configured for a CCID Chip/Smart Card Interface Devices USB smart card reader in passthrough mode. An attacker able to connect to the port ...

Privilege Escalation

kernel is vulnerable to privilege escalation. The vulnerability exists using PCI passthrough without interrupt remapping support allowed KVM guests to generate MSI interrupts and thus potentially inject traps. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to crash the host or possibly escalate thei...

Privilege Escalation

qemu-kvm is vulnerable to privilege escalation. It was found that qemu-kvm did not properly drop supplemental group privileges when the root user started guests from the command line "/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm" with the "-runas" option. A qemu-kvm process started this way could use this flaw to gain...
