Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Xen and the Linux kernel versions prior to 4.6
Description
The issue arises from insufficient input validation in the Xen hypervisor, allowing a local attacker to cause a denial of service by attempting to access a hugetlbfs mapped area, resulting in a guest OS crash.
Recommendations
For Xen and Linux kernel versions prior to 4.6, update to a version that properly suppresses hugetlbfs support in x86 PV guests to prevent the denial of service.
