kernel: KVM: nVMX: missing IBPB when exiting from nested guest can lead to Spectre v2 attacks

A flaw was found in the KVM's Intel nested virtualization feature nVMX. Since L1 and L2 shared branch prediction modes guest-user and guest-kernel, KVM did not protect indirect branches in L1 from steering by a malicious agent in L2. This could allow a malicious nested guest to carry out Spectre ...

kernel: KVM: nVMX: missing consistency checks for CR0 and CR4

A flaw was found in the KVM's Intel nested virtualization feature nVMX. The effective values of the guest CR0 and CR4 registers could differ from those included in the VMCS12. In rare circumstances i.e., kvmintel module loaded with parameters nested=1 and ept=0 this could allow a malicious guest ...

USN-6502-3: Linux kernel (NVIDIA) vulnerabilities

Ivan D Barrera, Christopher Bednarz, Mustafa Ismail, and Shiraz Saleem discovered that the InfiniBand RDMA driver in the Linux kernel did not properly check for zero-length STAG or MR registration. A remote attacker could possibly use this to execute arbitrary code. CVE-2023-25775 Yu Hao discover...

USN-6497-1: Linux kernel (OEM) vulnerabilities

Maxim Levitsky discovered that the KVM nested virtualization SVM implementation for AMD processors in the Linux kernel did not properly handle x2AVIC MSRs. An attacker in a guest VM could use this to cause a denial of service host kernel crash. CVE-2023-5090 Alon Zahavi discovered that the...

kernel: KVM: x86/mmu: race condition in direct_page_fault()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the KVM. A race condition in directpagefault allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service host OS crash or host OS memory corruption when nested virtualization and the TDP MMU are enabled...
