Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10, Linux

A flaw was discovered in KVM. When updating a guest’s page table entry, vmpgoff was incorrectly used as the offset to obtain the page’s pfn. Since vaddr and vmpgoff are controllable by user-mode processes, this flaw allows unprivileged local users on the host to write outside the userspace region...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux, Linux 5.10

Rogue backends can cause Denial of Service DoS attacks on guests through high-frequency events. This CNA information record relates to multiple Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVEs. Xen allows for the execution of PV...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Warns when a triple fault assertion never “escapes” from L2 The warnings are removed because they perform a sanity check that ensures KVM never allows a triple fault in L2 to escape and end up in L1. In normal operation...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

A flaw was discovered in the KVM’s AMD code, which handles SVM nested virtualization. The flaw occurs during the processing of 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 all...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in open-vm-tools

A malicious actor who has been granted “Guest Operation Privileges” https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/8.0/vsphere-security/GUID-6A952214-0E5E-4CCF-9D2A-90948FF643EC.html can potentially elevate their privileges if the target virtual machine has been assigned a more privileged “Guest Alias...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: KVM: x86: Fixed a stack-out-of-bounds memory access from ioapicwriteindirect. KASAN reports the following issue: BUG: In kvmmakevcpusrequestmask+0x174/0x440 kvm, there is a stack-out-of-bounds situation. A read of size 8 at...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.15

A flaw was discovered in the AMD nested virtualization SVM feature of the KVM. A malicious L1 guest could intentionally fail to intercept the shutdown of a cooperative nested guest L2, potentially causing a page fault and kernel panic in the host L0...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in the virtio-net device of QEMU. This vulnerability can occur when the address of the descriptor belongs to the non-direct access region, due to the numbuffers being set after the virtqueue elem has been unmapped. A malicious guest can exploit this...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in libvirt

A flaw was discovered in the libvirt libxl driver. A malicious guest could continuously reboot itself, causing libvirtd on the host to become locked out or crash, resulting in a denial-of-service condition...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Immediately reset the MMU context when the SMM flag is cleared The MMU context should be reset immediately when the SMM flag of the vCPU is cleared, so that the SMM flag in the MMU context is always synchronized with th...

Secure Encrypted Virtualization SEV on the Advanced Micro Devices AMD Platform Security Processor PSP; also known as AMD Secure Processor or AMD-SP 0.17 build 11 and earlier has an insecure cryptographic implementation...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86/mmu: The existing SPTE is dropped/zapped even when creating an MMIO SPTE. When installing an emulated MMIO SPTE, do so after dropping/zapping the existing SPTE if it’s shadow-present. While the commit a54aa15c6bda3 was...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.15

A race condition in the x86 KVM subsystem within the Linux kernel, as of 6.1-rc6, allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service host OS crash or host OS memory corruption when nested virtualization is enabled and the TDP MMU is also enabled...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.15

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel’s KVM module. This flaw can lead to a denial of service in the x86emulateinsn function in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c. The flaw occurs when an illegal instruction is executed on the guest CPU of the Intel model...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen/gntdev: Accommodation for VMA splitting Prior to this commit, the gntdev driver code did not handle the following scenario correctly with paravirtualized PV Xen domains: The user process sets up a gntdev mapping consisting of...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10, Linux

A flaw was discovered in the Linux kernel’s implementation of proxied virtualized TPM devices. In a system where virtualized TPM devices are enabled which is not the default setting, a local attacker can exploit this flaw to create a “use-after-free” condition, potentially allowing them to escala...
