CVE-2017-17565

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.9.x allowing PV guest OS users to cause a denial of service host OS crash if shadow mode and log-dirty mode are in place, because of an incorrect assertion related to M2P...

improper bug check in x86 log-dirty handling

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Memory sharing, available to x86 HVM guests only, uses a special value in the global machine to physical address translation table M2P. PV guests have full control over M2P entries corresponding to pages they own. A bug check specifically, an assertion that an M2P entry is not t...

x86 PV guests may gain access to internally used pages

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Memory management for PV guests builds on page ownership and page attributes. A domain can always map, at least r/o, pages of which it is the owner. Certain fields in the control structure of a page are used for different purposes in the main PV memory management code and in cod...

SUSE SLES11 Security Update : xen (SUSE-SU-2017:3242-1)

This update for xen fixes several issues. These security issues were fixed : - bsc1068187: Failure to recognize errors in the Populate on Demand PoD code allowed for DoS XSA-246 - bsc1068191: Missing p2m error checking in PoD code allowed unprivileged guests to retain a writable mapping of freed...

SUSE SLED12 / SLES12 Security Update : xen (SUSE-SU-2017:2864-1)

This update for xen fixes several issues: These security issues were fixed : - CVE-2017-5526: The ES1370 audio device emulation support was vulnerable to a memory leakage issue allowing a privileged user inside the guest to cause a DoS and/or potentially crash the Qemu process on the host...

pin count / page reference race in grant table code

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Grant copying code made an implication that any grant pin would be accompanied by a suitable page reference. Other portions of code, however, did not match up with that assumption. When such a grant copy operation is being done on a grant of a dying domain, the assumption turns...

Xen - Pagetable De-typing Unbounded Recursion

Xen - Pagetable De-typing Unbounded Recursion Xen allows pagetables of the same level to map each other as readonly in PV domains. This is useful if a guest wants to use the self-referential pagetable trick for easy access to pagetables by mapped virtual address. When cleaning up a pagetable afte...
