Descriptions

Buffer overflow in hw/pt-msi.c in Xen 4.6.x and earlier, when using the qemu-xen-traditional (aka qemu-dm) device model, allows local x86 HVM guest administrators to gain privileges by leveraging a system with access to a passed-through MSI-X capable physical PCI device and MSI-X table entries, related to a "write path."

Desbordamiento de buffer en hw/pt-msi.c en Xen 4.6.x y versiones anteriores, cuando se utiliza el modelo de dispositivo qemu-xen-traditional (también conocido como qemu-dm), permite a administradores locales x86 HVM invitados obtener privilegios aprovechando un sistema con acceso a un dispositivo PCI físico con capacidad de paso a través de MSI-X y a entradas de tabla MSI-X, relacionado con una "ruta de escritura".
