In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Acquire SRCU in KVMGETMPSTATE to protect guest memory accesses Acquire a lock on kvm-srcu when userspace is getting MP state to handle a rather extreme edge case where "accepting" APIC events, i.e. processing pending IN...

kernel: KVM: nVMX: missing IBPB when exiting from nested guest can lead to Spectre v2 attacks

A flaw was found in the KVM's Intel nested virtualization feature nVMX. Since L1 and L2 shared branch prediction modes guest-user and guest-kernel, KVM did not protect indirect branches in L1 from steering by a malicious agent in L2. This could allow a malicious nested guest to carry out Spectre ...

kernel: KVM: SEV-ES / SEV-SNP VMGEXIT double fetch vulnerability

A flaw was found in KVM AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization SEV in the Linux kernel. A KVM guest using SEV-ES or SEV-SNP with multiple vCPUs can trigger a double fetch race condition vulnerability and invoke the VMGEXIT handler recursively. If an attacker manages to call the handler multiple time...
