An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. An x86 PV guest can trigger a host OS crash when handling guest access to MSR_MISC_ENABLE. When a guest accesses certain Model Specific Registers, Xen first reads the value from hardware to use as the basis for auditing the guest access. For the MISC_ENABLE MSR, which is an Intel specific MSR, this MSR read is performed without error handling for a #GP fault, which is the consequence of trying to read this MSR on non-Intel hardware. A buggy or malicious PV guest administrator can crash Xen, resulting in a host Denial of Service. Only x86 systems are vulnerable. ARM systems are not vulnerable. Only Xen versions 4.11 and onwards are vulnerable. 4.10 and earlier are not vulnerable. Only x86 systems that do not implement the MISC_ENABLE MSR (0x1a0) are vulnerable. AMD and Hygon systems do not implement this MSR and are vulnerable. Intel systems do implement this MSR and are not vulnerable. Other manufacturers have not been checked. Only x86 PV guests can exploit the vulnerability. x86 HVM/PVH guests cannot exploit the vulnerability.

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. There is mishandling of the constraint that once-valid
    event channels may not turn invalid. Logic in the handling of event channel operations in Xen assumes that
    an event channel, once valid, will not become invalid over the life time of a guest. However, operations
    like the resetting of all event channels may involve decreasing one of the bounds checked when determining
    validity. This may lead to bug checks triggering, crashing the host. An unprivileged guest may be able to
    crash Xen, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) for the entire system. All Xen versions from 4.4 onwards
    are vulnerable. Xen versions 4.3 and earlier are not vulnerable. Only systems with untrusted guests
    permitted to create more than the default number of event channels are vulnerable. This number depends on
    the architecture and type of guest. For 32-bit x86 PV guests, this is 1023; for 64-bit x86 PV guests, and
    for all ARM guests, this number is 4095. Systems where untrusted guests are limited to fewer than this
    number are not vulnerable. Note that xl and libxl limit max_event_channels to 1023 by default, so systems
    using exclusively xl, libvirt+libxl, or their own toolstack based on libxl, and not explicitly setting
    max_event_channels, are not vulnerable. (CVE-2020-25597)

  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing x86 HVM guest OS users to cause a hypervisor
    crash. An inverted conditional in x86 HVM guests' dirty video RAM tracking code allows such guests to make
    Xen de-reference a pointer guaranteed to point at unmapped space. A malicious or buggy HVM guest may cause
    the hypervisor to crash, resulting in Denial of Service (DoS) affecting the entire host. Xen versions from
    4.8 onwards are affected. Xen versions 4.7 and earlier are not affected. Only x86 systems are affected.
    Arm systems are not affected. Only x86 HVM guests using shadow paging can leverage the vulnerability. In
    addition, there needs to be an entity actively monitoring a guest's video frame buffer (typically for
    display purposes) in order for such a guest to be able to leverage the vulnerability. x86 PV guests, as
    well as x86 HVM guests using hardware assisted paging (HAP), cannot leverage the vulnerability.
    (CVE-2020-15563)

  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing Arm guest OS users to cause a hypervisor crash
    because of a missing alignment check in VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info. The hypercall VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info
    is used by a guest to register a shared region with the hypervisor. The region will be mapped into Xen
    address space so it can be directly accessed. On Arm, the region is accessed with instructions that
    require a specific alignment. Unfortunately, there is no check that the address provided by the guest will
    be correctly aligned. As a result, a malicious guest could cause a hypervisor crash by passing a
    misaligned address. A malicious guest administrator may cause a hypervisor crash, resulting in a Denial of
    Service (DoS). All Xen versions are vulnerable. Only Arm systems are vulnerable. x86 systems are not
    affected. (CVE-2020-15564)

  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing x86 Intel HVM guest OS users to cause a host OS
    denial of service or possibly gain privileges because of insufficient cache write-back under VT-d. When
    page tables are shared between IOMMU and CPU, changes to them require flushing of both TLBs. Furthermore,
    IOMMUs may be non-coherent, and hence prior to flushing IOMMU TLBs, a CPU cache also needs writing back to
    memory after changes were made. Such writing back of cached data was missing in particular when splitting
    large page mappings into smaller granularity ones. A malicious guest may be able to retain read/write DMA
    access to frames returned to Xen's free pool, and later reused for another purpose. Host crashes (leading
    to a Denial of Service) and privilege escalation cannot be ruled out. Xen versions from at least 3.2
    onwards are affected. Only x86 Intel systems are affected. x86 AMD as well as Arm systems are not
    affected. Only x86 HVM guests using hardware assisted paging (HAP), having a passed through PCI device
    assigned, and having page table sharing enabled can leverage the vulnerability. Note that page table
    sharing will be enabled (by default) only if Xen considers IOMMU and CPU large page size support
    compatible. (CVE-2020-15565)

  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.13.x, allowing guest OS users to cause a host OS crash because of
    incorrect error handling in event-channel port allocation. The allocation of an event-channel port may
    fail for multiple reasons: (1) port is already in use, (2) the memory allocation failed, or (3) the port
    we try to allocate is higher than what is supported by the ABI (e.g., 2L or FIFO) used by the guest or the
    limit set by an administrator (max_event_channels in xl cfg). Due to the missing error checks, only (1)
    will be considered an error. All the other cases will provide a valid port and will result in a crash when
    trying to access the event channel. When the administrator configured a guest to allow more than 1023
    event channels, that guest may be able to crash the host. When Xen is out-of-memory, allocation of new
    event channels will result in crashing the host rather than reporting an error. Xen versions 4.10 and
    later are affected. All architectures are affected. The default configuration, when guests are created
    with xl/libxl, is not vulnerable, because of the default event-channel limit. (CVE-2020-15566)

    max_event_channels, are not vulnerable. (CVE-2020-25597)

  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. The PCI passthrough code improperly uses register data.
    Code paths in Xen's MSI handling have been identified that act on unsanitized values read back from device
    hardware registers. While devices strictly compliant with PCI specifications shouldn't be able to affect
    these registers, experience shows that it's very common for devices to have out-of-spec "backdoor"
    operations that can affect the result of these reads. A not fully trusted guest may be able to crash Xen,
    leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) for the entire system. Privilege escalation and information leaks
    cannot be excluded. All versions of Xen supporting PCI passthrough are affected. Only x86 systems are
    vulnerable. Arm systems are not vulnerable. Only guests with passed through PCI devices may be able to
    leverage the vulnerability. Only systems passing through devices with out-of-spec ("backdoor")
    functionality can cause issues. Experience shows that such out-of-spec functionality is common; unless you
    have reason to believe that your device does not have such functionality, it's better to assume that it
    does. (CVE-2020-25595)

  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. x86 PV guest kernels can experience denial of service via
    SYSENTER. The SYSENTER instruction leaves various state sanitization activities to software. One of Xen's
    sanitization paths injects a #GP fault, and incorrectly delivers it twice to the guest. This causes the
    guest kernel to observe a kernel-privilege #GP fault (typically fatal) rather than a user-privilege #GP
    fault (usually converted into SIGSEGV/etc.). Malicious or buggy userspace can crash the guest kernel,
    resulting in a VM Denial of Service. All versions of Xen from 3.2 onwards are vulnerable. Only x86 systems
    are vulnerable. ARM platforms are not vulnerable. Only x86 systems that support the SYSENTER instruction
    in 64bit mode are vulnerable. This is believed to be Intel, Centaur, and Shanghai CPUs. AMD and Hygon CPUs
    are not believed to be vulnerable. Only x86 PV guests can exploit the vulnerability. x86 PVH / HVM guests
    cannot exploit the vulnerability. (CVE-2020-25596)

  - An issue was discovered in Xen 4.14.x. There is a missing unlock in the XENMEM_acquire_resource error
    path. The RCU (Read, Copy, Update) mechanism is a synchronisation primitive. A buggy error path in the
    XENMEM_acquire_resource exits without releasing an RCU reference, which is conceptually similar to
    forgetting to unlock a spinlock. A buggy or malicious HVM stubdomain can cause an RCU reference to be
    leaked. This causes subsequent administration operations, (e.g., CPU offline) to livelock, resulting in a
    host Denial of Service. The buggy codepath has been present since Xen 4.12. Xen 4.14 and later are
    vulnerable to the DoS. The side effects are believed to be benign on Xen 4.12 and 4.13, but patches are
    provided nevertheless. The vulnerability can generally only be exploited by x86 HVM VMs, as these are
    generally the only type of VM that have a Qemu stubdomain. x86 PV and PVH domains, as well as ARM VMs,
    typically don't use a stubdomain. Only VMs using HVM stubdomains can exploit the vulnerability. VMs using
    PV stubdomains, or with emulators running in dom0, cannot exploit the vulnerability. (CVE-2020-25598)

  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. There are evtchn_reset() race conditions. Uses of
    EVTCHNOP_reset (potentially by a guest on itself) or XEN_DOMCTL_soft_reset (by itself covered by XSA-77)
    can lead to the violation of various internal assumptions. This may lead to out of bounds memory accesses
    or triggering of bug checks. In particular, x86 PV guests may be able to elevate their privilege to that
    of the host. Host and guest crashes are also possible, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). Information
    leaks cannot be ruled out. All Xen versions from 4.5 onwards are vulnerable. Xen versions 4.4 and earlier
    are not vulnerable. (CVE-2020-25599)
