CVE-2007-1320 5 Debian, Fedoraproject, Opensuse and 2 more 6 Debian Linux, Fedora, Fedora Core and 3 more 2025-04-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the cirrus_invalidate_region function in the Cirrus VGA extension in QEMU 0.8.2, as used in Xen and possibly other products, might allow local users to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors related to "attempting to mark non-existent regions as dirty," aka the "bitblt" heap overflow.
CVE-2008-3687 1 Xen 2 Xen, Xen Flask Module 2025-04-09 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
Heap-based buffer overflow in the flask_security_label function in Xen 3.3, when compiled with the XSM:FLASK module, allows unprivileged domain users (domU) to execute arbitrary code via the flask_op hypercall.
CVE-2007-5730 3 Debian, Qemu, Xen 3 Debian Linux, Qemu, Xen 2025-04-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
Heap-based buffer overflow in QEMU 0.8.2, as used in Xen and possibly other products, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via crafted data in the "net socket listen" option, aka QEMU "net socket" heap overflow. NOTE: some sources have used CVE-2007-1321 to refer to this issue as part of "NE2000 network driver and the socket code," but this is the correct identifier for the individual net socket listen vulnerability.
CVE-2009-3525 1 Xen 1 Xen 2025-04-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
The pyGrub boot loader in Xen 3.0.3, 3.3.0, and Xen-3.3.1 does not support the password option in grub.conf for para-virtualized guests, which allows attackers with access to the para-virtualized guest console to boot the guest or modify the guest's kernel boot parameters without providing the expected password.
CVE-2008-4993 1 Xen 1 Xen 2025-04-09 6.9 MEDIUM N/A
qemu-dm.debug in Xen 3.2.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/args temporary file.
CVE-2009-1758 2 Linux, Xen 2 Linux Kernel, Xen 2025-04-09 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The hypervisor_callback function in Xen, possibly before 3.4.0, as applied to the Linux kernel 2.6.30-rc4, 2.6.18, and probably other versions allows guest user applications to cause a denial of service (kernel oops) of the guest OS by triggering a segmentation fault in "certain address ranges."
CVE-2007-6416 1 Xen 1 Xen 2025-04-09 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
The copy_to_user function in the PAL emulation functionality for Xen 3.1.2 and earlier, when running on ia64 systems, allows HVM guest users to access arbitrary physical memory by triggering certain mapping operations.
CVE-2007-0998 2 Redhat, Xen 3 Enterprise Linux, Fedora Core, Qemu 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
The VNC server implementation in QEMU, as used by Xen and possibly other environments, allows local users of a guest operating system to read arbitrary files on the host operating system via unspecified vectors related to QEMU monitor mode, as demonstrated by mapping files to a CDROM device. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
CVE-2007-1321 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Qemu and 1 more 5 Debian Linux, Fedora, Fedora Core and 2 more 2025-04-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
Integer signedness error in the NE2000 emulator in QEMU 0.8.2, as used in Xen and possibly other products, allows local users to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow via certain register values that bypass sanity checks, aka QEMU NE2000 "receive" integer signedness error. NOTE: this identifier was inadvertently used by some sources to cover multiple issues that were labeled "NE2000 network driver and the socket code," but separate identifiers have been created for the individual vulnerabilities since there are sometimes different fixes; see CVE-2007-5729 and CVE-2007-5730.
CVE-2023-20593 3 Amd, Debian, Xen 140 Athlon Gold 7220u, Athlon Gold 7220u Firmware, Epyc 7232p and 137 more 2025-02-13 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
An issue in “Zen 2” CPUs, under specific microarchitectural circumstances, may allow an attacker to potentially access sensitive information.
CVE-2022-42336 1 Xen 1 Xen 2025-01-22 N/A 3.3 LOW
Mishandling of guest SSBD selection on AMD hardware The current logic to set SSBD on AMD Family 17h and Hygon Family 18h processors requires that the setting of SSBD is coordinated at a core level, as the setting is shared between threads. Logic was introduced to keep track of how many threads require SSBD active in order to coordinate it, such logic relies on using a per-core counter of threads that have SSBD active. When running on the mentioned hardware, it's possible for a guest to under or overflow the thread counter, because each write to VIRT_SPEC_CTRL.SSBD by the guest gets propagated to the helper that does the per-core active accounting. Underflowing the counter causes the value to get saturated, and thus attempts for guests running on the same core to set SSBD won't have effect because the hypervisor assumes it's already active.
CVE-2023-4949 2 Gnu, Xen 2 Grub, Xen 2024-11-21 N/A 8.1 HIGH
An attacker with local access to a system (either through a disk or external drive) can present a modified XFS partition to grub-legacy in such a way to exploit a memory corruption in grub’s XFS file system implementation.
CVE-2023-20588 5 Amd, Debian, Fedoraproject and 2 more 78 Athlon Gold 3150g, Athlon Gold 3150g Firmware, Athlon Gold 3150ge and 75 more 2024-11-21 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
A division-by-zero error on some AMD processors can potentially return speculative data resulting in loss of confidentiality. 
CVE-2022-4949 2 Adsanityplugin, Xen 2 Adsanity, Xen 2024-11-21 N/A 8.8 HIGH
The AdSanity plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'ajax_upload' function in versions up to, and including, 1.8.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Contributor+ level privileges to upload arbitrary files on the affected sites server which makes remote code execution possible.
CVE-2022-42335 2 Fedoraproject, Xen 2 Fedora, Xen 2024-11-21 N/A 7.8 HIGH
x86 shadow paging arbitrary pointer dereference In environments where host assisted address translation is necessary but Hardware Assisted Paging (HAP) is unavailable, Xen will run guests in so called shadow mode. Due to too lax a check in one of the hypervisor routines used for shadow page handling it is possible for a guest with a PCI device passed through to cause the hypervisor to access an arbitrary pointer partially under guest control.
CVE-2022-42334 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Xen 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Xen 2024-11-21 N/A 6.5 MEDIUM
x86/HVM pinned cache attributes mis-handling T[his CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.] To allow cachability control for HVM guests with passed through devices, an interface exists to explicitly override defaults which would otherwise be put in place. While not exposed to the affected guests themselves, the interface specifically exists for domains controlling such guests. This interface may therefore be used by not fully privileged entities, e.g. qemu running deprivileged in Dom0 or qemu running in a so called stub-domain. With this exposure it is an issue that - the number of the such controlled regions was unbounded (CVE-2022-42333), - installation and removal of such regions was not properly serialized (CVE-2022-42334).
CVE-2022-42333 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Xen 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Xen 2024-11-21 N/A 8.6 HIGH

CVE-2022-42332 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Xen 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Xen 2024-11-21 N/A 7.8 HIGH
x86 shadow plus log-dirty mode use-after-free In environments where host assisted address translation is necessary but Hardware Assisted Paging (HAP) is unavailable, Xen will run guests in so called shadow mode. Shadow mode maintains a pool of memory used for both shadow page tables as well as auxiliary data structures. To migrate or snapshot guests, Xen additionally runs them in so called log-dirty mode. The data structures needed by the log-dirty tracking are part of aformentioned auxiliary data. In order to keep error handling efforts within reasonable bounds, for operations which may require memory allocations shadow mode logic ensures up front that enough memory is available for the worst case requirements. Unfortunately, while page table memory is properly accounted for on the code path requiring the potential establishing of new shadows, demands by the log-dirty infrastructure were not taken into consideration. As a result, just established shadow page tables could be freed again immediately, while other code is still accessing them on the assumption that they would remain allocated.
CVE-2022-42331 2 Fedoraproject, Xen 2 Fedora, Xen 2024-11-21 N/A 5.5 MEDIUM
x86: speculative vulnerability in 32bit SYSCALL path Due to an oversight in the very original Spectre/Meltdown security work (XSA-254), one entrypath performs its speculation-safety actions too late. In some configurations, there is an unprotected RET instruction which can be attacked with a variety of speculative attacks.
CVE-2022-42330 1 Xen 1 Xen 2024-11-21 N/A 7.5 HIGH
Guests can cause Xenstore crash via soft reset When a guest issues a "Soft Reset" (e.g. for performing a kexec) the libxl based Xen toolstack will normally perform a XS_RELEASE Xenstore operation. Due to a bug in xenstored this can result in a crash of xenstored. Any other use of XS_RELEASE will have the same impact.
