Baixa
| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Xen versions 4.0 through 4.2
Citrix XenServer version 6.0.2 and earlier
Description
The issue allows local OS guest users to cause a denial of service by writing to the reserved bits of the DR7 debug control register. This is possible through the set debugreg hypercall in include/asm-x86/debugreg.h when running on x86-64 systems.
Recommendations
For Xen versions 4.0 through 4.2, consider restricting access to the set debugreg hypercall to prevent local OS guest users from causing a denial of service.
For Citrix XenServer version 6.0.2 and earlier, restrict access to the set debugreg hypercall in include/asm-x86/debugreg.h to minimize the risk of exploitation.
