| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016-09-21 | CVE-2016-7093 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in XEN 4.5.3/4.6.3/4.7.0 Xen 4.5.3, 4.6.3, and 4.7.x allow local HVM guest OS administrators to overwrite hypervisor memory and consequently gain host OS privileges by leveraging mishandling of instruction pointer truncation during emulation. | 8.2 |
| 2016-09-21 | CVE-2016-7092 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in XEN The get_page_from_l3e function in arch/x86/mm.c in Xen allows local 32-bit PV guest OS administrators to gain host OS privileges via vectors related to L3 recursive pagetables. | 8.2 |
| 2016-08-02 | CVE-2016-6258 | Improper Access Control vulnerability in multiple products The PV pagetable code in arch/x86/mm.c in Xen 4.7.x and earlier allows local 32-bit PV guest OS administrators to gain host OS privileges by leveraging fast-paths for updating pagetable entries. | 8.8 |
| 2016-05-18 | CVE-2016-4480 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products The guest_walk_tables function in arch/x86/mm/guest_walk.c in Xen 4.6.x and earlier does not properly handle the Page Size (PS) page table entry bit at the L4 and L3 page table levels, which might allow local guest OS users to gain privileges via a crafted mapping of memory. | 8.4 |
| 2016-04-19 | CVE-2016-3960 | Integer overflow in the x86 shadow pagetable code in Xen allows local guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host crash) or possibly gain privileges by shadowing a superpage mapping. | 8.8 |
| 2016-04-14 | CVE-2015-8554 | Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in XEN 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." | 7.5 |
| 2016-04-14 | CVE-2015-8550 | Improper Access Control vulnerability in multiple products Xen, when used on a system providing PV backends, allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) or gain privileges by writing to memory shared between the frontend and backend, aka a double fetch vulnerability. | 8.2 |
| 2016-04-13 | CVE-2015-8555 | Information Exposure vulnerability in multiple products Xen 4.6.x, 4.5.x, 4.4.x, 4.3.x, and earlier do not initialize x86 FPU stack and XMM registers when XSAVE/XRSTOR are not used to manage guest extended register state, which allows local guest domains to obtain sensitive information from other domains via unspecified vectors. | 8.6 |
| 2016-04-12 | CVE-2016-3157 | Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products The __switch_to function in arch/x86/kernel/process_64.c in the Linux kernel does not properly context-switch IOPL on 64-bit PV Xen guests, which allows local guest OS users to gain privileges, cause a denial of service (guest OS crash), or obtain sensitive information by leveraging I/O port access. | 7.8 |
| 2016-01-22 | CVE-2016-1570 | Improper Input Validation vulnerability in XEN The PV superpage functionality in arch/x86/mm.c in Xen 3.4.0, 3.4.1, and 4.1.x through 4.6.x allows local PV guests to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service, gain privileges, or have unspecified other impact via a crafted page identifier (MFN) to the (1) MMUEXT_MARK_SUPER or (2) MMUEXT_UNMARK_SUPER sub-op in the HYPERVISOR_mmuext_op hypercall or (3) unknown vectors related to page table updates. | 8.5 |
