issues with partially successful P2M updates on x86 T[his CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.] x86 HVM and PVH guests may be started in populate-on-demand (PoD) mode, to provide a way for them to later easily have more memory assigned. Guests are permitted to control certain P2M aspects of individual pages via hypercalls. These hypercalls may act on ranges of pages specified via page orders (resulting in a power-of-2 number of pages). In some cases the hypervisor carries out the requests by splitting them into smaller chunks. Error handling in certain PoD cases has been insufficient in that in particular partial success of some operations was not properly accounted for. • https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/I7ZGWVVRI4XY2XSTBI3XEMWBXPDVX6OT https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/PXUI4VMD52CH3T7YXAG3J2JW7ZNN3SXF https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202402-07 https://www.debian.org/security/2021/dsa-5017 https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-389.txt • CWE-755: Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions •

grant table v2 status pages may remain accessible after de-allocation Guest get permitted access to certain Xen-owned pages of memory. The majority of such pages remain allocated / associated with a guest for its entire lifetime. Grant table v2 status pages, however, get de-allocated when a guest switched (back) from v2 to v1. The freeing of such pages requires that the hypervisor know where in the guest these pages were mapped. The hypervisor tracks only one use within guest space, but racing requests from the guest to insert mappings of these pages may result in any of them to become mapped in multiple locations. • https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/2VQCFAPBNGBBAOMJZG6QBREOG5IIDZID https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/FZCNPSRPGFCQRYE2BI4D4Q4SCE56ANV2 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/LPRVHW4J4ZCPPOHZEWP5MOJT7XDGFFPJ https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202208-23 https://www.debian.org/security/2021/dsa-4977 https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-379.txt • CWE-362: Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') •

x86: Speculative vulnerabilities with bare (non-shim) 32-bit PV guests 32-bit x86 PV guest kernels run in ring 1. At the time when Xen was developed, this area of the i386 architecture was rarely used, which is why Xen was able to use it to implement paravirtualisation, Xen's novel approach to virtualization. In AMD64, Xen had to use a different implementation approach, so Xen does not use ring 1 to support 64-bit guests. With the focus now being on 64-bit systems, and the availability of explicit hardware support for virtualization, fixing speculation issues in ring 1 is not a priority for processor companies. Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation (IBRS) is an architectural x86 extension put together to combat speculative execution sidechannel attacks, including Spectre v2. • https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-370.txt • CWE-212: Improper Removal of Sensitive Information Before Storage or Transfer •

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.11.x, allowing x86 Intel HVM guest OS users to achieve unintended read/write DMA access, and possibly cause a denial of service (host OS crash) or gain privileges. This occurs because a backport missed a flush, and thus IOMMU updates were not always correct. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-15565. Se detectó un problema en Xen versiones hasta 4.11.x, permitiendo a usuarios del Sistema Operativo invitado x86 Intel HVM obtener acceso DMA de lectura y escritura no previsto y posiblemente causar una denegación de servicio (bloqueo del Sistema Operativo host) o alcanzar privilegios. Esto ocurre porque un backport no se descargó y, por lo tanto, las actualizaciones de IOMMU no siempre fueron correctas. • http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2021/02/23/1 http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-366.html https://www.debian.org/security/2021/dsa-4888 https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-366.html •
