CVE-2019-18420
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.12.x allowing x86 PV guest OS users to cause a denial of service via a VCPUOPinitialise hypercall. hypercallcreatecontinuation is a variadic function which uses a printf-like format string to interpret its parameters. Error handling for a bad format...

CVE-2019-18425
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.12.x allowing 32-bit PV guest OS users to gain guest OS privileges by installing and using descriptors. There is missing descriptor table limit checking in x86 PV emulation. When emulating certain PV guest operations, descriptor table accesses are performe...
CVE-2019-18421
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.12.x allowing x86 PV guest OS users to gain host OS privileges by leveraging race conditions in pagetable promotion and demotion operations. There are issues with restartable PV type change operations. To avoid using shadow pagetables for PV guests, Xen...

CVE-2019-18425
CVE-2019-18425 affects Xen across 3.2+ and enables privilege escalation in 32-bit PV guests due to missing descriptor table limit checks in x86 PV emulation. The vulnerability is limited to 32-bit PV guest user mode; HVM/PVH/64-bit PV guests and ARM are not affected. Exploitation would let a gues...
CVE-2019-18421
CVE-2019-18421 affects the Xen hypervisor on x86 PV guests. Root cause: restartable PV type changes with recursive pagetable promotions/demotions contain races that can lead to incorrect type counts, enabling a PV guest to gain host privileges. Impact: local privilege escalation to host OS on all...

CVE-2019-18420
CVE-2019-18420 affects the Xen hypervisor (x86 PV guests). A bug in VCPUOP_initialise handling, where hypercall_create_continuation() uses a printf-like format string and BUG() for bad characters, can crash the hypervisor if a guest causes a long continuation, enabling Denial of Service. Vulnerab...
missing descriptor table limit checking in x86 PV emulation
ISSUE DESCRIPTION When emulating certain PV guest operations, descriptor table accesses are performed by the emulating code. Such accesses should respect the guest specified limits, unless otherwise guaranteed to fail in such a case. Without this, emulation of 32-bit guest user mode calls through...
VCPUOP_initialise DoS
ISSUE DESCRIPTION hypercallcreatecontinuation is a variadic function which uses a printf-like format string to interpret its parameters. Error handling for a bad format character was done using BUG, which crashes Xen. One path, via the VCPUOPinitialise hypercall, has a bad format character. The B...
Issues with restartable PV type change operations
ISSUE DESCRIPTION To avoid using shadow pagetables for PV guests, Xen exposes the actual hardware pagetables to the guest. In order to prevent the guest from modifying these page tables directly, Xen keeps track of how pages are used using a type system; pages must be "promoted" before being used...

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Xen versions 3.2 through 4.12.x Description: The issue is related to an error in the x86 PV emulation of the Xen hypervisor, specifically a missing check for the descriptor table limit. This could allow a remote attacker to access confidentia...
PT-2019-4882
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Xen versions 4.6 through 4.12.x Description The issue is related to incorrect error handling for a malformed format character in the hypercall initialise function of the Xen hypervisor. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a...
