CVE-2020-29479
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-29479
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. In the Ocaml xenstored implementation, the internal representation of the tree has special cases for the root node, because this node has no parent. Unfortunately, permissions were not checked for certain operations on the root node. Unprivileged guests can get and modify permissions, list, and delete the root node. (Deleting the whole xenstore tree is a host-wide denial of service.) • https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/2C6M6S3CIMEBACH6O7V4H2VDANMO6TVA https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/OBLV6L6Q24PPQ2CRFXDX4Q76KU776GKI https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202107-30 https://www.debian.org/security/2020/dsa-4812 https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-353.html • CWE-862: Missing Authorization •
CVE-2020-29571
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-29571
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. A bounds check common to most operation time functions specific to FIFO event channels depends on the CPU observing consistent state. While the producer side uses appropriately ordered writes, the consumer side isn't protected against re-ordered reads, and may hence end up de-referencing a NULL pointer. Malicious or buggy guest kernels can mount a Denial of Service (DoS) attack affecting the entire system. Only Arm systems may be vulnerable. • https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/2C6M6S3CIMEBACH6O7V4H2VDANMO6TVA https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/OBLV6L6Q24PPQ2CRFXDX4Q76KU776GKI https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202107-30 https://www.debian.org/security/2020/dsa-4812 https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-359.html • CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference •
CVE-2020-29570
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-29570
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. Recording of the per-vCPU control block mapping maintained by Xen and that of pointers into the control block is reversed. The consumer assumes, seeing the former initialized, that the latter are also ready for use. Malicious or buggy guest kernels can mount a Denial of Service (DoS) attack affecting the entire system. Se detectó un problema en Xen versiones hasta 4.14.x. • http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/12/16/4 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/2C6M6S3CIMEBACH6O7V4H2VDANMO6TVA https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/OBLV6L6Q24PPQ2CRFXDX4Q76KU776GKI https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202107-30 https://www.debian.org/security/2020/dsa-4812 https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-358.html • CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling •
CVE-2020-29569
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-29569
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.10.1, as used with Xen through 4.14.x. The Linux kernel PV block backend expects the kernel thread handler to reset ring->xenblkd to NULL when stopped. However, the handler may not have time to run if the frontend quickly toggles between the states connect and disconnect. As a consequence, the block backend may re-use a pointer after it was freed. A misbehaving guest can trigger a dom0 crash by continuously connecting / disconnecting a block frontend. • https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/02/msg00018.html https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/03/msg00010.html https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202107-30 https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20210205-0001 https://www.debian.org/security/2021/dsa-4843 https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-350.html • CWE-416: Use After Free •
CVE-2020-29568
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-29568
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. Some OSes (such as Linux, FreeBSD, and NetBSD) are processing watch events using a single thread. If the events are received faster than the thread is able to handle, they will get queued. As the queue is unbounded, a guest may be able to trigger an OOM in the backend. All systems with a FreeBSD, Linux, or NetBSD (any version) dom0 are vulnerable. • https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/02/msg00018.html https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/03/msg00010.html https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202107-30 https://www.debian.org/security/2021/dsa-4843 https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-349.html • CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling •
