Multiple vulnerabilities in libelf PV kernel handling

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The ELF parser used by the Xen tools to read domains' kernels and construct domains has multiple integer overflows, pointer dereferences based on calculations from unchecked input values, and other problems. This corresponds to the following CVEs: CVE-2013-2194 XEN XSA-55 intege...

Fedora 17 : xen-4.1.5-2.fc17 (2013-7432)

PV guests can use non-preemptible long latency operations to mount a denial of service attack on the whole system XSA-45, CVE-2013-1918, malicious guests can inject interrupts through bridge devices to mount a denial of service attack on the whole system XSA-49, CVE-2013-1952 Note that Tenable...

CVE-2013-1917

Xen 3.1 through 4.x, when running 64-bit hosts on Intel CPUs, does not clear the NT flag when using an IRET after a SYSENTER instruction, which allows PV guest users to cause a denial of service hypervisor crash by triggering a GP fault, which is not properly handled by another IRET instruction...

Xen PV DoS vulnerability with SYSENTER

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The SYSENTER instruction can be used by PV guests to accelerate system call processing. This instruction, however, leaves the EFLAGS register mostly unmodified - in particular, the NT flag doesn't get cleared. If the hypervisor subsequently uses IRET to return to the guest which...

Linux netback DoS via malicious guest ring.

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The Xen netback implementation contains a couple of flaws which can allow a guest to cause a DoS in the backend domain, potentially affecting other domains in the system. CVE-2013-0216 is a failure to sanity check the ring producer/consumer pointers which can allow a guest to...

SuSE 11.1 Security Update : Xen (SAT Patch Number 6653)

Xen was updated to fix several security issues : - A xen HVM guest destroy p2m teardown host DoS vulnerability was fixed, where malicious guest could lock/crash the host. CVE-2012-3433 - A xen HVM guest user mode MMIO emulation DoS was fixed. CVE-2012-3432 - The xen pv bootloader doesn't check th...

Hypervisor crash due to incorrect ASSERT (debug build only)

ISSUE DESCRIPTION A change to an internal interface within the hypervisor invalidated an ASSERT in a caller of that API. This code path is exposed to PV guests via a hypercall allowing administrators of PV guests to crash the hypervisor if it is built with debugging enabled. IMPACT Malicious...

several hypercalls do not validate input GFNs

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The function getpagefromgfn does not validate its input GFN. An invalid GFN passed to a hypercall which uses this function will cause the hypervisor to read off the end of the frame table and potentially crash. IMPACT A malicious guest administrator of a PV guest can cause Xen t...

XENMEM_exchange may overwrite hypervisor memory

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The handler for XENMEMexchange accesses guest memory without range checking the guest provided addresses, thus allowing these accesses to include the hypervisor reserved range. IMPACT A malicious guest administrator can cause Xen to crash. If the out of address space bounds acce...
