It is possible to have a valid pagetable entry without the valid bit set when a guest operating system uses set/way cache maintenance instructions. For instance, a guest issuing a set/way cache maintenance instruction, then calling the XENMEM_decrease_reservation hypercall to give back memory pages to Xen, might be able to retain access to those pages even after Xen started reusing them for other purposes." } ] }, "impact": { "impact_data": { "description": { "description_data": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "A malicious guest may be able to access Xen and other domains' memory.\nThis could cause information leaks, host or domain Denial of Service\n(DoS), and privilege escalations." } ] } } }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "unknown" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "url": "https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-393.txt", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-393.txt" }, { "refsource": "MLIST", "name": "[oss-security] 20220125 Xen Security Advisory 393 v2 (CVE-2022-23033) - arm: guest_physmap_remove_page not removing the p2m mappings", "url": "http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2022/01/25/2" }, { "refsource": "FEDORA", "name": "FEDORA-2022-0cc3916e08", "url": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/OMR6UBGJW6JKND7IILGQ2CU35EQPF3E3/" }, { "refsource": "DEBIAN", "name": "DSA-5117", "url": "https://www.debian.org/security/2022/dsa-5117" }, { "refsource": "GENTOO", "name": "GLSA-202208-23", "url": "https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202208-23" } ] }, "workaround": { "workaround_data": { "description": { "description_data": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "There is no known mitigation." } ] } } } }
