This is, for instance, used when allocating\nguest memory to ensure any writes (such as the ones during scrubbing)\nhave reached memory before handing over the page to a guest.\n\nUnfortunately, the arithmetics in the helpers can overflow and would\nthen result to skip the cache cleaning/invalidation. Therefore there\nis no guarantee when all the writes will reach the memory.\n\nThis undefined behavior was meant to be addressed by XSA-437, but the\napproach was not sufficient.\n" } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "affects": { "vendor": { "vendor_data": [ { "vendor_name": "Xen", "product": { "product_data": [ { "product_name": "Xen", "version": { "version_data": [ { "version_value": "not down converted", "x_cve_json_5_version_data": { "versions": [ { "status": "unknown", "version": "consult Xen advisory XSA-447" } ], "defaultStatus": "unknown" } } ] } } ] } } ] } }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "url": "https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-447.html", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/advisory-447.html" }, { "url": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/XLL6SQ6IKFYXLYWITYZCRV5IBRK5G35R/", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/XLL6SQ6IKFYXLYWITYZCRV5IBRK5G35R/" }, { "url": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/JFVKWYQFRUU3CAS53THTUKXEOUDWI42G/", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/JFVKWYQFRUU3CAS53THTUKXEOUDWI42G/" } ] }, "configuration": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "Systems running all version of Xen are affected.\n\nOnly systems running Xen on Arm 32-bit are vulnerable.
