kernel: x86: local privesc due to bad_iret and paranoid entry incompatibility

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel handled GS segment register base switching when recovering from a SS stack segment fault on an erroneous return to user space. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system...

xen: information leak through outs instruction emulation (XSA-67)

The outs instruction emulation in Xen 3.1.x, 4.2.x, 4.3.x, and earlier, when using FS: or GS: segment override, uses an uninitialized variable as a segment base, which allows local 64-bit PV guests to obtain sensitive information hypervisor stack content via unspecified vectors related to stale...

Information leak through outs instruction emulation

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The emulation of the outs instruction for 64-bit PV guests uses an uninitialized variable as the segment base for the source data if an FS: or GS: segment override is used, and if the segment descriptor the respective non-null selector in the corresponding selector register poin...
