CVE-2022-45869

Una condición de carrera en el subsistema KVM x86 en el kernel de Linux hasta 6.1-rc6 permite a los usuarios del sistema operativo invitado provocar una denegación de servicio (caída del sistema operativo anfitrión o corrupción de la memoria del sistema operativo anfitrión) cuando la virtualización anidada y la MMU TDP están habilitadas.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the KVM. A race condition in direct_page_fault allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash or host OS memory corruption) when nested virtualization and the TDP MMU are enabled.

It was discovered that the Upper Level Protocol subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle sockets entering the LISTEN state in certain protocols, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Davide Ornaghi discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle VLAN headers in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
