Denial Of Service (DoS)

xen is vulnerable to denial of saervice. A race condition when migrating timers between x86 HVM vCPUs allows an attacker to cause a deadlock in the application which will result in a hang or application crash...

CVE-2020-25604

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. There is a race condition when migrating timers between x86 HVM vCPUs. When migrating timers of x86 HVM guests between its vCPUs, the locking model used allows for a second vCPU of the same guest also operating on the timers to release a lock that it...

CVE-2020-25604

CVE-2020-25604 in Xen up to 4.14.x describes a race condition when migrating timers between x86 HVM vCPUs. The locking model can allow a second vCPU of the same guest to release a lock it did not acquire, potentially causing a hang or crash (DoS) of the hypervisor. Affected: all Xen versions on x...

The Number of vCPUs Assigned To A Guest Causes VIFs To Go Offline

Increasing the number of vCPUs assigned to a VM will reduce the number of available. For instance 10 vCPUs will have 7 active VIFs but 12 vCPUs will only allow 6 active VIFs...

DEBIAN-CVE-2015-7969

Multiple memory leaks in Xen 4.0 through 4.6.x allow local guest administrators or domains with certain permission to cause a denial of service memory consumption via a large number of "teardowns" of domains with the vcpu pointer array allocated using the 1 XENDOMCTLmaxvcpus hypercall or the...

xen-kernel -- leak of per-domain profiling-related vcpu pointer array

The Xen Project reports: A domain's xenoprofile state contains an array of per-vcpu information... This array is leaked on domain teardown. This memory leak could -- over time -- exhaust the host's memory. The following parties can mount a denial of service attack affecting the whole system: A...
