AV:A/AC:M/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:C

Multiple integer overflows in the (1) FLASKGETBOOL and (2) FLASKSETBOOL suboperations in the flask hypercall in Xen 4.1.x, 3.3.x, 3.2.x, and earlier, when XSM is enabled, allow local users to cause a denial of service (processor fault) via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-1891, CVE-2014-1892, and CVE-2014-1894.

Unlike 32-bit PV guests, HVM guests may switch freely between 64-bit and other modes. This in particular means that they may set registers used to pass 32-bit-mode hypercall arguments to values outside of the range 32-bit code would be able to set them to.

When processing of hypercalls takes a considerable amount of time, the hypervisor may choose to invoke a hypercall continuation. Doing so involves putting (perhaps updated) hypercall arguments in respective registers. For guests not running in 64-bit mode this further involves a certain amount of translation of the values.

Unfortunately internal sanity checking of these translated values assumes high halves of registers to always be clear when invoking a hypercall. When this is found not to be the case, it triggers a consistency check in the hypervisor and causes a crash.

An issue was discovered in xenoprof in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing guest OS users (without active profiling) to obtain sensitive information about other guests. Unprivileged guests can request to map xenoprof buffers, even if profiling has not been enabled for those guests. These buffers were not scrubbed.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

The hypervisorcallback 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."

AV:A/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:N/A:N

Xen 3.2.x through 4.4.x does not properly clean memory pages recovered from guests, which allows local guest OS users to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
