SUSE CVE-2015-2877

Kernel Samepage Merging KSM in the Linux kernel 2.6.32 through 4.x does not prevent use of a write-timing side channel, which allows guest OS users to defeat the ASLR protection mechanism on other guest OS instances via a Cross-VM ASL INtrospection CAIN attack. NOTE: the vendor states "Basically ...

PT-2017-4328

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel versions 4.4.0-96.119 and later Description: A flaw in the Linux kernel's memory deduplication mechanism, specifically in the Kernel Samepage Merging KSM component, can create a side channel. This allows an attacker to potentiall...

The vulnerability of the Kernel Samepage Merging (KSM) component in the Linux operating system allows a hacker to influence the confidentiality of information.

The vulnerability of the Linux operating system’s Kernel Samepage Merging KSM component is related to the lack of protection for service data when the ASLR mechanism is used. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a local attacker to partially compromise the confidentiality of information through a...

CVE-2015-2877

CVE-2015-2877 affects Kernel Samepage Merging (KSM) in Linux kernels 2.6.32–4.x. The write-timing side channel allows a guest OS user to defeat ASLR on other guest instances via Cross-VM ASL Introspection (CAIN). The entry notes that disabling deduplication mitigates the attack vector. No explici...
