Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2022-45869
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Linux kernel versions through 6.1-rc6
**Description**
A race condition in the x86 KVM subsystem allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service, resulting in a host OS crash or host OS memory corruption when nested virtualisation and the TDP MMU are enabled.
**Recommendations**
For Linux kernel versions through 6.1-rc6, as a temporary workaround, consider disabling nested virtualisation and the TDP MMU to minimize the risk of exploitation.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
