CVE-2017-12136 3 Citrix, Debian, Xen 3 Xenserver, Debian Linux, Xen 2019-05-06 6.9 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
Race condition in the grant table code in Xen 4.6.x through 4.9.x allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (free list corruption and host crash) or gain privileges on the host via vectors involving maptrack free list handling.
CVE-2018-19967 2 Debian, Xen 2 Debian Linux, Xen 2019-04-17 4.9 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.11.x on Intel x86 platforms allowing guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS hang) because Xen does not work around Intel's mishandling of certain HLE transactions associated with the KACQUIRE instruction prefix.
CVE-2018-12892 2 Debian, Xen 2 Debian Linux, Xen 2019-03-29 6.5 MEDIUM 9.9 CRITICAL
An issue was discovered in Xen 4.7 through 4.10.x. libxl fails to pass the readonly flag to qemu when setting up a SCSI disk, due to what was probably an erroneous merge conflict resolution. Malicious guest administrators or (in some situations) users may be able to write to supposedly read-only disk images. Only emulated SCSI disks (specified as "sd" in the libxl disk configuration, or an equivalent) are affected. IDE disks ("hd") are not affected (because attempts to make them readonly are rejected). Additionally, CDROM devices (that is, devices specified to be presented to the guest as CDROMs, regardless of the nature of the backing storage on the host) are not affected; they are always read only. Only systems using qemu-xen (rather than qemu-xen-traditional) as the device model version are vulnerable. Only systems using libxl or libxl-based toolstacks are vulnerable. (This includes xl, and libvirt with the libxl driver.) The vulnerability is present in Xen versions 4.7 and later. (In earlier versions, provided that the patch for XSA-142 has been applied, attempts to create read only disks are rejected.) If the host and guest together usually support PVHVM, the issue is exploitable only if the malicious guest administrator has control of the guest kernel or guest kernel command line.
CVE-2018-15469 2 Debian, Xen 2 Debian Linux, Xen 2019-03-08 4.9 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.11.x. ARM never properly implemented grant table v2, either in the hypervisor or in Linux. Unfortunately, an ARM guest can still request v2 grant tables; they will simply not be properly set up, resulting in subsequent grant-related hypercalls hitting BUG() checks. An unprivileged guest can cause a BUG() check in the hypervisor, resulting in a denial-of-service (crash).
CVE-2016-3159 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Oracle and 1 more 4 Debian Linux, Fedora, Vm Server and 1 more 2019-02-21 1.7 LOW 3.8 LOW
The fpu_fxrstor function in arch/x86/i387.c in Xen 4.x does not properly handle writes to the hardware FSW.ES bit when running on AMD64 processors, which allows local guest OS users to obtain sensitive register content information from another guest by leveraging pending exception and mask bits. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2013-2076.
CVE-2015-8104 5 Canonical, Debian, Linux and 2 more 6 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Linux Kernel and 3 more 2019-02-13 4.7 MEDIUM N/A
The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.2.6, and Xen 4.3.x through 4.6.x, allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS panic or hang) by triggering many #DB (aka Debug) exceptions, related to svm.c.
CVE-2015-5307 5 Canonical, Debian, Linux and 2 more 5 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Linux Kernel and 2 more 2019-02-12 4.9 MEDIUM N/A
The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.2.6, and Xen 4.3.x through 4.6.x, allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS panic or hang) by triggering many #AC (aka Alignment Check) exceptions, related to svm.c and vmx.c.
CVE-2018-18883 1 Xen 1 Xen 2019-01-24 7.2 HIGH 8.8 HIGH
An issue was discovered in Xen 4.9.x through 4.11.x, on Intel x86 platforms, allowing x86 HVM and PVH guests to cause a host OS denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) or possibly have unspecified other impact because nested VT-x is not properly restricted.
CVE-2013-4494 2 Debian, Xen 2 Debian Linux, Xen 2018-12-13 5.2 MEDIUM N/A
Xen before 4.1.x, 4.2.x, and 4.3.x does not take the page_alloc_lock and grant_table.lock in the same order, which allows local guest administrators with access to multiple vcpus to cause a denial of service (host deadlock) via unspecified vectors.
CVE-2018-15470 1 Xen 1 Xen 2018-11-13 4.9 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.11.x. The logic in oxenstored for handling writes depended on the order of evaluation of expressions making up a tuple. As indicated in section 7.7.3 "Operations on data structures" of the OCaml manual, the order of evaluation of subexpressions is not specified. In practice, different implementations behave differently. Thus, oxenstored may not enforce the configured quota-maxentity. This allows a malicious or buggy guest to write as many xenstore entries as it wishes, causing unbounded memory usage in oxenstored. This can lead to a system-wide DoS.
CVE-2018-7540 2 Debian, Xen 2 Debian Linux, Xen 2018-11-13 4.9 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.10.x allowing x86 PV guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS CPU hang) via non-preemptable L3/L4 pagetable freeing.
CVE-2018-5244 1 Xen 1 Xen 2018-10-31 4.9 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
In Xen 4.10, new infrastructure was introduced as part of an overhaul to how MSR emulation happens for guests. Unfortunately, one tracking structure isn't freed when a vcpu is destroyed. This allows guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (host OS memory consumption) by rebooting many times.
CVE-2018-7542 2 Debian, Xen 2 Debian Linux, Xen 2018-10-31 4.9 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
An issue was discovered in Xen 4.8.x through 4.10.x allowing x86 PVH guest OS users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and hypervisor crash) by leveraging the mishandling of configurations that lack a Local APIC.
CVE-2018-10472 2 Debian, Xen 2 Debian Linux, Xen 2018-10-31 1.9 LOW 5.6 MEDIUM
An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.10.x allowing x86 HVM guest OS users (in certain configurations) to read arbitrary dom0 files via QMP live insertion of a CDROM, in conjunction with specifying the target file as the backing file of a snapshot.

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.10.x allowing x86 PV guest OS users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds zero write and hypervisor crash) via unexpected INT 80 processing, because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2017-5754.
CVE-2014-9065 2 Opensuse, Xen 2 Opensuse, Xen 2018-10-30 4.4 MEDIUM N/A
common/spinlock.c in Xen 4.4.x and earlier does not properly handle read and write locks, which allows local x86 guest users to cause a denial of service (write denial or NMI watchdog timeout and host crash) via a large number of read requests, a different vulnerability to CVE-2014-9066.

Xen 4.2.x and 4.3.x, when using Intel VT-d for PCI passthrough, does not properly flush the TLB after clearing a present translation table entry, which allows local guest administrators to cause a denial of service or gain privileges via unspecified vectors related to an "inverted boolean parameter."
CVE-2014-5146 2 Opensuse, Xen 2 Opensuse, Xen 2018-10-30 4.7 MEDIUM N/A
Certain MMU virtualization operations in Xen 4.2.x through 4.4.x before the xsa97-hap patch, when using Hardware Assisted Paging (HAP), are not preemptible, which allows local HVM guest to cause a denial of service (vcpu consumption) by invoking these operations, which process every page assigned to a guest, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-5149.
