Updated

[This CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.]

Some Viridian hypercalls can specify a mask of vCPU IDs as an input, in one of three formats. Xen has boundary checking bugs with all three formats, which can cause out-of-bounds reads and writes while processing the inputs.

CVE-2025-58147. Hypercalls using the HVVPSET Sparse format can cause vpmaskset() to write out of bounds when converting the bitmap to Xen's format.

CVE-2025-58148. Hypercalls using any input format can cause sendipi() to read d->vcpu[] out-of-bounds, and operate on a wild vCPU pointer.
