CVE-2020-11743
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-11743
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing guest OS users to cause a denial of service because of a bad error path in GNTTABOP_map_grant. Grant table operations are expected to return 0 for success, and a negative number for errors. Some misplaced brackets cause one error path to return 1 instead of a negative value. The grant table code in Linux treats this condition as success, and proceeds with incorrectly initialised state. A buggy or malicious guest can construct its grant table in such a way that, when a backend domain tries to map a grant, it hits the incorrect error path. • http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2020-05/msg00006.html http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/04/14/3 http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-316.html https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/5M2XRNCHOGGTJQBZQJ7DCV6ZNAKN3LE2 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/NVTP4OYHCTRU3ONFJOFJQVNDFB25KLLG https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/YMAW7D2MP • CWE-755: Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions •

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-11742
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing guest OS users to cause a denial of service because of bad continuation handling in GNTTABOP_copy. Grant table operations are expected to return 0 for success, and a negative number for errors. The fix for CVE-2017-12135 introduced a path through grant copy handling where success may be returned to the caller without any action taken. In particular, the status fields of individual operations are left uninitialised, and may result in errant behaviour in the caller of GNTTABOP_copy. A buggy or malicious guest can construct its grant table in such a way that, when a backend domain tries to copy a grant, it hits the incorrect exit path. • http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2020-05/msg00006.html http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/04/14/4 http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-318.html https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/5M2XRNCHOGGTJQBZQJ7DCV6ZNAKN3LE2 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/NVTP4OYHCTRU3ONFJOFJQVNDFB25KLLG https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/YMAW7D2MP •

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-11741
An issue was discovered in xenoprof in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing guest OS users (with active profiling) to obtain sensitive information about other guests, cause a denial of service, or possibly gain privileges. For guests for which "active" profiling was enabled by the administrator, the xenoprof code uses the standard Xen shared ring structure. Unfortunately, this code did not treat the guest as a potential adversary: it trusts the guest not to modify buffer size information or modify head / tail pointers in unexpected ways. This can crash the host (DoS). Privilege escalation cannot be ruled out. • http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2020-05/msg00006.html http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/04/14/1 http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-313.html https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/5M2XRNCHOGGTJQBZQJ7DCV6ZNAKN3LE2 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/NVTP4OYHCTRU3ONFJOFJQVNDFB25KLLG https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/YMAW7D2MP • CWE-909: Missing Initialization of Resource •
CVE-2020-11740
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-11740
An issue was discovered in xenoprof in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing guest OS users (without active profiling) to obtain sensitive information about other guests. Unprivileged guests can request to map xenoprof buffers, even if profiling has not been enabled for those guests. These buffers were not scrubbed. Se detectó un problema en xenoprof en Xen versiones hasta 4.13.x, permitiendo a usuarios invitados del Sistema Operativo (sin perfiles activos) obtener información confidencial sobre otros invitados. Los invitados no privilegiados pueden solicitar mapear los búferes de xenoprof, inclusive si la creación de perfiles no se ha habilitado para esos invitados. • http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2020-05/msg00006.html http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/04/14/1 http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-313.html https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/5M2XRNCHOGGTJQBZQJ7DCV6ZNAKN3LE2 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/NVTP4OYHCTRU3ONFJOFJQVNDFB25KLLG https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/YMAW7D2MP • CWE-212: Improper Removal of Sensitive Information Before Storage or Transfer •
CVE-2020-11739
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-11739
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing guest OS users to cause a denial of service or possibly gain privileges because of missing memory barriers in read-write unlock paths. The read-write unlock paths don't contain a memory barrier. On Arm, this means a processor is allowed to re-order the memory access with the preceding ones. In other words, the unlock may be seen by another processor before all the memory accesses within the "critical" section. As a consequence, it may be possible to have a writer executing a critical section at the same time as readers or another writer. • http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2020-05/msg00006.html http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/04/14/2 http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-314.html https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/5M2XRNCHOGGTJQBZQJ7DCV6ZNAKN3LE2 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/NVTP4OYHCTRU3ONFJOFJQVNDFB25KLLG https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/YMAW7D2MP • CWE-362: Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') •
