gnttab: cache-flush handling may cause page reference leak
With its original introduction, GNTTAB_cache_flush was made available uniformly. XSA-232 (CVE-2017-14318) then covered an omitted NULL pointer check, yet the addition of that check failed to adjust the subsequent error path. That error path fails to drop a pa…

VMX: VMentry failure with branch tracing and blocked states
For XSA-308 logic was introduced, as VMX VMEntry checks do not like the exact combination of state which occurs when #DB in intercepted, Single Stepping is active, and blocked by STI/MovSS is active, despite this being a legitimate state to be in. The resulti…

Xenstore: Guests can crash xenstored during Live Update
During Xenstore live update the state record for a Xenstore watch with specified watch depth is written with two bytes missing. This results in an inconsistent state when reading the state back in the new Xenstore, causing a crash of Xenstore or wrong Xenstor…

Unconditionally do TLB flushing ahead of page scrubbing
x86 PV guests can free memory pages while still keeping a stale TLB entry pointing to them. A TLB flush is only issued by Xen (if needed) when the page is re-used. Since it's possible for the page to be scrubbed ahead of the TLB flush, there's a window where …

x86: DMs may cause mem leak by IRQ binding
When guests are terminated, various pieces of cleanup need carrying out. The cleaning up of PCI devices which were assigned to guests, and the associated removal of tracking structures for IRQs used by the devices occurs relatively early in the process. Unfor…

PoD: Don't try to reclaim special pages
A guest started with Populated on Demand enabled (PoD) can attempt to reclaim pages which aren't regular guest RAM. This can cause corruption of memory management state in Xen.

vNUMA domain cleanup may race other operations
Accessing the vNUMA configuration data of a guest is still possible when domain destruction has already started. The cleaning up of that configuration information is not synchronized with its retrieval by a device model controlling the guest.

x86: Incorrect stubs exception handling for flags recovery
Certain instructions need intercepting and emulating by Xen. In some cases Xen emulates the instruction by replaying it, using an executable stub. Some instructions may raise an exception, which is supposed to be handled gracefully. Certain replayed instructi…

Deadlock in x86 HVM standard VGA handling
