libxl leaks data to PVH guests via ACPI tables

ISSUE DESCRIPTION PVH guests have their ACPI tables constructed by the toolstack. The construction involves building the tables in local memory, which are then copied into guest memory. While actually used parts of the local memory are filled in correctly, excess space that is being allocated is...

SUSE CVE-2013-4329

The xenlight library libxl in Xen 4.0.x through 4.2.x, when IOMMU is disabled, provides access to a busmastering-capable PCI passthrough device before the IOMMU setup is complete, which allows local HVM guest domains to gain privileges or cause a denial of service via a DMA instruction...

SUSE CVE-2013-6457

The libxlDomainGetNumaParameters function in the libxl driver libxl/libxldriver.c in libvirt before 1.2.1 does not properly initialize the nodemap, which allows local users to cause a denial of service invalid free operation and crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via an inactive domain to t...

SUSE CVE-2015-7311

libxl in Xen 4.1.x through 4.6.x does not properly handle the readonly flag on disks when using the qemu-xen device model, which allows local guest users to write to a read-only disk image...

SUSE CVE-2015-8341

The libxl toolstack library in Xen 4.1.x through 4.6.x does not properly release mappings of files used as kernels and initial ramdisks when managing multiple domains in the same process, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service memory and disk consumption by starting domains...

SUSE CVE-2016-4963

The libxl device-handling in Xen through 4.6.x allows local guest OS users with access to the driver domain to cause a denial of service management tool confusion by manipulating information in the backend directories in xenstore...

SUSE CVE-2016-4962

The libxl device-handling in Xen 4.6.x and earlier allows local OS guest administrators to cause a denial of service resource consumption or management facility confusion or gain host OS privileges by manipulating information in guest controlled areas of xenstore...

SUSE CVE-2018-12892

An issue was discovered in Xen 4.7 through 4.10.x. libxl fails to pass the readonly flag to qemu when setting up a SCSI disk, due to what was probably an erroneous merge conflict resolution. Malicious guest administrators or in some situations users may be able to write to supposedly read-only di...

SUSE CVE-2020-15566

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing guest OS users to cause a host OS crash because of incorrect error handling in event-channel port allocation. The allocation of an event-channel port may fail for multiple reasons: 1 port is already in use, 2 the memory allocation failed, or...

SUSE CVE-2021-4147

A flaw was found in the libvirt libxl driver. A malicious guest could continuously reboot itself and cause libvirtd on the host to deadlock or crash, resulting in a denial of service condition...

SUSE CVE-2021-28687

HVM soft-reset crashes toolstack libxl requires all data structures passed across its public interface to be initialized before use and disposed of afterwards by calling a specific set of functions. Many internal data structures also require this initialize / dispose discipline, but not all of...

DEBIAN-CVE-2022-42330

Guests can cause Xenstore crash via soft reset When a guest issues a "Soft Reset" e.g. for performing a kexec the libxl based Xen toolstack will normally perform a XSRELEASE Xenstore operation. Due to a bug in xenstored this can result in a crash of xenstored. Any other use of XSRELEASE will have...
