Summary

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.9.x allowing PV guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) if shadow mode and log-dirty mode are in place, because of an incorrect assertion related to M2P.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables
    This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
  • Server Side Include (SSI) Injection
    An attacker can use Server Side Include (SSI) Injection to send code to a web application that then gets executed by the web server. Doing so enables the attacker to achieve similar results to Cross Site Scripting, viz., arbitrary code execution and information disclosure, albeit on a more limited scale, since the SSI directives are nowhere near as powerful as a full-fledged scripting language. Nonetheless, the attacker can conveniently gain access to sensitive files, such as password files, and execute shell commands.
  • Cross Zone Scripting
    An attacker is able to cause a victim to load content into their web-browser that bypasses security zone controls and gain access to increased privileges to execute scripting code or other web objects such as unsigned ActiveX controls or applets. This is a privilege elevation attack targeted at zone-based web-browser security. In a zone-based model, pages belong to one of a set of zones corresponding to the level of privilege assigned to that page. Pages in an untrusted zone would have a lesser level of access to the system and/or be restricted in the types of executable content it was allowed to invoke. In a cross-zone scripting attack, a page that should be assigned to a less privileged zone is granted the privileges of a more trusted zone. This can be accomplished by exploiting bugs in the browser, exploiting incorrect configuration in the zone controls, through a cross-site scripting attack that causes the attackers' content to be treated as coming from a more trusted page, or by leveraging some piece of system functionality that is accessible from both the trusted and less trusted zone. This attack differs from "Restful Privilege Escalation" in that the latter correlates to the inadequate securing of RESTful access methods (such as HTTP DELETE) on the server, while cross-zone scripting attacks the concept of security zones as implemented by a browser.
  • Cross Site Scripting through Log Files
    An attacker may leverage a system weakness where logs are susceptible to log injection to insert scripts into the system's logs. If these logs are later viewed by an administrator through a thin administrative interface and the log data is not properly HTML encoded before being written to the page, the attackers' scripts stored in the log will be executed in the administrative interface with potentially serious consequences. This attack pattern is really a combination of two other attack patterns: log injection and stored cross site scripting.
  • Command Line Execution through SQL Injection
    An attacker uses standard SQL injection methods to inject data into the command line for execution. This could be done directly through misuse of directives such as MSSQL_xp_cmdshell or indirectly through injection of data into the database that would be interpreted as shell commands. Sometime later, an unscrupulous backend application (or could be part of the functionality of the same application) fetches the injected data stored in the database and uses this data as command line arguments without performing proper validation. The malicious data escapes that data plane by spawning new commands to be executed on the host.

    fixed :
    
      - CVE-2017-5753, CVE-2017-5715, CVE-2017-5754: Prevent
        information leaks via side effects of speculative
        execution, aka 'Spectre' and 'Meltdown' attacks
        (bsc#1074562, bsc#1068032)
    
      - CVE-2018-5683: The vga_draw_text function allowed local
        OS guest privileged users to cause a denial of service
        (out-of-bounds read and QEMU process crash) by
        leveraging improper memory address validation
        (bsc#1076116).
    
      - CVE-2017-18030: The cirrus_invalidate_region function
        allowed local OS guest privileged users to cause a
        denial of service (out-of-bounds array access and QEMU
        process crash) via vectors related to negative pitch
        (bsc#1076180).
    
      - CVE-2017-15595: x86 PV guest OS users were able to cause
        a DoS (unbounded recursion, stack consumption, and
        hypervisor crash) or possibly gain privileges via
        crafted page-table stacking (bsc#1061081)
    
      - CVE-2017-17566: Prevent PV guest OS users to cause a
        denial of service (host OS crash) or gain host OS
        privileges in shadow mode by mapping a certain auxiliary
        page (bsc#1070158).
    
      - CVE-2017-17563: Prevent guest OS users to cause a denial
        of service (host OS crash) or gain host OS privileges by
        leveraging an incorrect mask for reference-count
        overflow checking in shadow mode (bsc#1070159).
    
      - CVE-2017-17564: Prevent guest OS users to cause a denial
        of service (host OS crash) or gain host OS privileges by
        leveraging incorrect error handling for reference
        counting in shadow mode (bsc#1070160).
    
      - CVE-2017-17565: Prevent PV guest OS users to cause a
        denial of service (host OS crash) if shadow mode and
        log-dirty mode are in place, because of an incorrect
        assertion related to M2P (bsc#1070163).
    
      - Added missing intermediate preemption checks for guest
        requesting removal of memory. This allowed malicious
        guest administrator to cause denial of service due to
        the high cost of this operation (bsc#1080635).
    
      - Because of XEN not returning the proper error messages
        when transitioning grant tables from v2 to v1 a
        malicious guest was able to cause DoS or potentially
        allowed for privilege escalation as well as information
        leaks (bsc#1080662).
    
    The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for
    details.

  • NASL familyMisc.
    NASL idXEN_SERVER_XSA-251.NASL
    descriptionAccording to its self-reported version number, the Xen hypervisor installed on the remote host is affected by a guest-to-host denial of service vulnerability. Note that x86 systems are vulnerable. ARM systems are not vulnerable. Note that Nessus has checked the changeset versions based on the xen.git change log. Nessus did not check guest hardware configurations or if patches were applied manually to the source code before a recompile and reinstall.
