Information disclosure

PolarSSL versions prior to v1.1 use the HAVEGE random number generation algorithm. At its heart, this uses timing information based on the processor's high resolution timer the RDTSC instruction. This instruction can be virtualized, and some virtual machine hosts have chosen to disable this...

CVE-2011-4574

CVE-2011-4574 concerns PolarSSL (MBed TLS) prior to v1.1, where the HAVEGE RNG uses the processor’s high-resolution timer via RDTSC. In virtualized environments RDTSC can be disabled or return zeros/predictable results, making the RNG potentially predictable. The affected line-item notes PolarSSL...

PolarSsl 安全特征问题漏洞

PolarSsl Mbed Tls is a portable, easy to use, readable and flexible Ssl library. A security signature issue vulnerability exists in PolarSSL due to the product's use of the HAVEGE algorithm to generate random numbers and the algorithm is based on timing information from the processor's...

kernel: Improper handling of VM_IO|VM_PFNMAP vmas in KVM can bypass RO checks

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s KVM implementation, where improper handing of the VMIO|VMPFNMAP VMAs in KVM bypasses RO checks and leads to pages being freed while still accessible by the VMM and guest. This flaw allows users who can start and control a VM to read/write random pages of...

kernel: SVM nested virtualization issue in KVM (AVIC support)

A flaw was found in the KVM's AMD code for supporting SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs when processing the VMCB virtual machine control block provided by the L1 guest to spawn/handle a nested guest L2. Due to improper validation of the "intctl" field, this issue could allow a malicious ...

kernel: SVM nested virtualization issue in KVM (VMLOAD/VMSAVE)

A flaw was found in the KVM's AMD code for supporting SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs when processing the VMCB virtual machine control block provided by the L1 guest to spawn/handle a nested guest L2. Due to improper validation of the "virtext" field, this issue could allow a malicious...
