CVE-2026-42492 vIRQ event channel binding may break Xenstore

Xenstore, to have an up-to-date picture of the entire system, wants to know of domains appearing and disappearing. To make this more robust, a new XENDOMCTLgetdomainstate was introduced. The management of the bitmap underlying that operation is tied into the binding of the VIRQDOMEXC virtual IRQ...

CVE-2026-42492

Xen-related CVE-2026-42492 affects XenStore domain-state handling. The root cause is in the bitmap management of the XEN_DOMCTL_get_domain_state operation, tied to the VIRQ_DOM_EXC binding; an error path could tear down the bitmap even when it wasn’t set up. Unprivileged domains can trigger this ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen/events: Return -EEXIST for bound VIRQs Change findvirq to return -EEXIST when a VIRQ is bound to a different CPU than the one passed in. With that, remove the BUGON from bindvirqtoirq to propogate the error upwards. Some VIRQ...
