CVE-2017-8905

CVE-2017-8905 affects Xen 4.6.x on 64-bit platforms. A failsafe callback is mishandled, which could allow a PV guest OS user to execute arbitrary code on the host (XSA-215). Connected sources confirm the issue and reference the XSA-215 advisory; SUSE notes CVE-2017-8905 in security updates. No ex...

CVE-2017-8903

CVE-2017-8903 affects Xen on 64-bit platforms (Xen through 4.8.x) where page tables are mishandled after an IRET hypercall. This could let a PV guest OS user execute arbitrary code on the host OS (XSA-213). Connected sources corroborate the body of the vulnerability (XSA-213) and describe the hos...

CVE-2017-8904

CVE-2017-8904 : Xen up to 4.8.x is affected by a flaw in the handling of the “contains segment descriptors” property during GNTTABOP_transfer (guest transfer). The underlying issue is the mishandling in guest transfer operations, which could allow a PV guest OS user to execute arbitrary code on t...

x86: 64bit PV guest breakout via pagetable use-after-mode-change

ISSUE DESCRIPTION 64-bit PV guests typically use separate root page tables for their kernel and user modes. Hypercalls are accessible to guest kernel context only, which certain hypercall handlers make assumptions on. The IRET hypercall replacing the identically name CPU instruction is used by...

grant transfer allows PV guest to elevate privileges

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The GNTTABOPtransfer operation allows one guest to transfer a page to another guest. The internal processing of this, however, does not include zapping the previous type of the page being transferred. This makes it possible for a PV guest to transfer a page previously used as pa...
