CVSS v3.1 |
| Parts of the DM_OP handling code assumes the caller has provided the
required number of buffers for the given operation without any checking
being done. As a result, certain operations might access stack
rubble as structures are possibly uninitialized. |
| Xenstore, to have an up-to-date picture of the entire system, wants to
know of domains appearing and disappearing. To make this more robust, a
new XEN_DOMCTL_get_domain_state was introduced. The management of the
bitmap underlying that operation is tied into the binding of the
VIRQ_DOM_EXC virtual IRQ. Unfortunately an error path there would tear
down the bitmap even in cases when it wasn't set up. Unprivileged domains
can trigger that error path. |

The directory and Rock Ridge / SUSP walk in libfsimage's iso9660 driver
derives several lengths directly from attacker-controlled on-disk fields
without validating them:
* The directory loop itself assumes a good record length. This is
CVE-2026-42494.
* The calculation of the System Use area may underflow. This is
CVE-2026-42495.
* The Rock Ridge extension loop assumes a good (inner) record length.
This is CVE-2026-62423.
* The Rock Ridge NM record processing assumes a good entry length.
This is CVE-2026-62424.
* The Rock Ridge CE record processing assumes a good size and offset.
This is CVE-2026-62425. |

text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.]
To create and manage guests, domctl operations are used by the control
domain, a possible Xenstore domain, or by a domain controlling a
particular guest. Some of these operations may not be executed in
parallel, so a system-wide lock is used. The way that lock is acquired
is, however, not providing any fairness. This is CVE-2026-42489.
Furthermore, with XSM/Flask in use, the lock acquire will, for some
operations, occur ahead of any permission checking. This is
CVE-2026-42490. |

| Some shadow paging errors paths will switch the page-tables without
updating the currently running vCPU reference. This causes a mismatch
between the loaded page-tables and the mapcache metadata which can lead
to corruption of the mapcache. |
| HVM guest I/O port accesses are subject to either emulation or at least
translation. Translations are managed by the device model (via
XEN_DOMCTL_ioport_mapping), and hence the linked list used may changed
at any time. Traversal of those lists (while handling guest I/O port
accesses) therefore needs synchronizing with updates, which was missing
so far. |
| Xen allows guest OS users to obtain sensitive information from uninitialized locations in host OS kernel memory by not enabling memory and I/O decoding control bits. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-0777. |
| Any guest can cause xenstored to crash by issuing a XS_RESET_WATCHES
command within a transaction due to an assert() triggering.
In case xenstored was built with NDEBUG #defined nothing bad will
happen, as assert() is doing nothing in this case. Note that the
default is not to define NDEBUG for xenstored builds even in release
builds of Xen. |
| The adjustments made for XSA-379 as well as those subsequently becoming
XSA-387 still left a race window, when a HVM or PVH guest does a grant
table version change from v2 to v1 in parallel with mapping the status
page(s) via XENMEM_add_to_physmap. Some of the status pages may then be
freed while mappings of them would still be inserted into the guest's
secondary (P2M) page tables. |
| The hypervisor_callback function in Xen, possibly before 3.4.0, as applied to the Linux kernel 2.6.30-rc4, 2.6.18, and probably other versions allows guest user applications to cause a denial of service (kernel oops) of the guest OS by triggering a segmentation fault in "certain address ranges." |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in QEMU 0.8.2, as used in Xen and possibly other products, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via crafted data in the "net socket listen" option, aka QEMU "net socket" heap overflow. NOTE: some sources have used CVE-2007-1321 to refer to this issue as part of "NE2000 network driver and the socket code," but this is the correct identifier for the individual net socket listen vulnerability. |
| qemu-dm.debug in Xen 3.2.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/args temporary file. |
| Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the cirrus_invalidate_region function in the Cirrus VGA extension in QEMU 0.8.2, as used in Xen and possibly other products, might allow local users to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors related to "attempting to mark non-existent regions as dirty," aka the "bitblt" heap overflow. |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in the flask_security_label function in Xen 3.3, when compiled with the XSM:FLASK module, allows unprivileged domain users (domU) to execute arbitrary code via the flask_op hypercall. |
| The copy_to_user function in the PAL emulation functionality for Xen 3.1.2 and earlier, when running on ia64 systems, allows HVM guest users to access arbitrary physical memory by triggering certain mapping operations. |
| Integer signedness error in the NE2000 emulator in QEMU 0.8.2, as used in Xen and possibly other products, allows local users to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow via certain register values that bypass sanity checks, aka QEMU NE2000 "receive" integer signedness error. NOTE: this identifier was inadvertently used by some sources to cover multiple issues that were labeled "NE2000 network driver and the socket code," but separate identifiers have been created for the individual vulnerabilities since there are sometimes different fixes; see CVE-2007-5729 and CVE-2007-5730. |
| The pyGrub boot loader in Xen 3.0.3, 3.3.0, and Xen-3.3.1 does not support the password option in grub.conf for para-virtualized guests, which allows attackers with access to the para-virtualized guest console to boot the guest or modify the guest's kernel boot parameters without providing the expected password. |
