SUSE CVE-2015-7970

The p2mpodemergencysweep function in arch/x86/mm/p2m-pod.c in Xen 3.4.x, 3.5.x, and 3.6.x is not preemptible, which allows local x86 HVM guest administrators to cause a denial of service CPU consumption and possibly reboot via crafted memory contents that triggers a "time-consuming linear scan,"...

SUSE CVE-2017-18261

The archtimerregreadstable macro in arch/arm64/include/asm/archtimer.h in the Linux kernel before 4.13 allows local users to cause a denial of service infinite recursion by writing to a file under /sys/kernel/debug in certain circumstances, as demonstrated by a scenario involving debugfs, ftrace,...

SUSE CVE-2018-12891

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.10.x. Certain PV MMU operations may take a long time to process. For that reason Xen explicitly checks for the need to preempt the current vCPU at certain points. A few rarely taken code paths did bypass such checks. By suitably enforcing the conditions...

SUSE CVE-2020-25601

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. There is a lack of preemption in evtchnreset / evtchndestroy. In particular, the FIFO event channel model allows guests to have a large number of event channels active at a time. Closing all of these when resetting all event channels or when cleaning...

SUSE CVE-2022-33746

P2M pool freeing may take excessively long The P2M pool backing second level address translation for guests may be of significant size. Therefore its freeing may take more time than is reasonable without intermediate preemption checks. Such checking for the need to preempt was so far missing...
