Xen 4.6.x, 4.5.x, 4.4.x, 4.3.x, and earlier do not initialize x86 FPU stack and XMM registers when XSAVE/XRSTOR are not used to manage guest extended register state, which allows local guest domains to obtain sensitive information from other domains via unspecified vectors.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - xsa224 xen: grant table operations mishandle reference counts (XSA-224) (CVE-2017-10921)

  - The qemu implementation in libvirt before 1.3.0 and Xen allows local guest OS users to cause a denial of     service (host disk consumption) by writing to stdout or stderr. (CVE-2014-3672)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in the PCNET controller in QEMU allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary     code by sending a packet with TXSTATUS_STARTPACKET set and then a crafted packet with TXSTATUS_DEVICEOWNS     set. (CVE-2015-3209)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

xen was updated to fix 36 security issues.

The remote OracleVM system is missing necessary patches to address critical security updates :

  - x86/VMX: prevent INVVPID failure due to non-canonical     guest address While INVLPG (and on SVM INVLPGA) don't     fault on non-canonical addresses, INVVPID fails (in the     'individual address' case) when passed such an address.
    Since such intercepted INVLPG are effectively no-ops     anyway, don't fix this in vmx_invlpg_intercept, but     instead have paging_invlpg never return true in such a     case. This is XSA-168. (CVE-2016-1571)

  - x86/mm: PV superpage handling lacks sanity checks     MMUEXT_[,UN]MARK_SUPER fail to check the input MFN for     validity before dereferencing pointers into the     superpage frame table. get_superpage has a similar     issue. This is XSA-167. (CVE-2016-1570)

  - x86/HVM: avoid reading ioreq state more than once     Otherwise, especially when the compiler chooses to     translate the switch to a jump table, unpredictable     behavior (and in the jump table case arbitrary code     execution) can result. This is XSA-166.

  - x86: don't leak ST(n)/XMMn values to domains first using     them FNINIT doesn't alter these registers, and hence     using it is insufficient to initialize a guest's initial     state. This is XSA-165. (CVE-2015-8555)

  - MSI-X: avoid array overrun upon MSI-X table writes     pt_msix_init allocates msix->msix_entry[] to just cover     msix->total_entries entries. While pci_msix_readl     resorts to reading physical memory for out of bounds     reads, pci_msix_writel so far simply accessed/corrupted     unrelated memory. pt_iomem_map's call to     cpu_register_physical_memory registers a page granular     region, which is necessary as the Pending Bit Array may     share space with the MSI-X table (but nothing else is     allowed to). This also explains why pci_msix_readl     actually honors out of bounds reads, but pci_msi_writel     doesn't need to. This is XSA-164. (CVE-2015-8554)

  - From 43a10fecd6f4a9d8adf9f5d85e3d5e7187e2d54a Mon Sep 17     00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Jackson Date: Wed, 18 Nov 2015     15:34:54 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] libxl: Fix     bootloader-related virtual memory leak on pv build     failure The bootloader may call     libxl__file_reference_map, which mmap's the pv_kernel     and pv_ramdisk into process memory. This was only     unmapped, however, on the success path of     libxl__build_pv. If there were a failure anywhere     between libxl_bootloader.c:parse_bootloader_result and     the end of libxl__build_pv, the calls to     libxl__file_reference_unmap would be skipped, leaking     the mapped virtual memory. Ideally this would be fixed     by adding the unmap calls to the destruction path for     libxl__domain_build_state. Unfortunately the lifetime of     the libxl__domain_build_state is opaque, and it doesn't     have a proper destruction path. But, the only thing in     it that isn't from the gc are these bootloader     references, and they are only ever set for one     libxl__domain_build_state, the one which is     libxl__domain_create_state.build_state. So we can clean     up in the exit path from libxl__domain_create_*, which     always comes through domcreate_complete. Remove the     now-redundant unmaps in libxl__build_pv's success path.
    This is XSA-160.

    Based on xen.org's xsa160.patch Conflicts: adjust patch     context to match OVM 3.3 code base (CVE-2015-8341)

  - memory: fix XENMEM_exchange error handling assign_pages     can fail due to the domain getting killed in parallel,     which should not result in a hypervisor crash. Also     delete a redundant put_gfn - all relevant paths leading     to the 'fail' label already do this (and there are also     paths where it was plain wrong). All of the put_gfn-s     got introduced by 51032ca058 ('Modify naming of queries     into the p2m'), including the otherwise unneeded     initializer for k (with even a kind of misleading     comment - the compiler warning could actually have     served as a hint that the use is wrong). This is     XSA-159.

22326022] (CVE-2015-8339, CVE-2015-8340)

  - x86/HVM: always intercept #AC and #DB Both being benign     exceptions, and both being possible to get triggered by     exception delivery, this is required to prevent a guest     from locking up a CPU (resulting from no other VM exits     occurring once getting into such a loop). The specific     scenarios: 1) #AC may be raised during exception     delivery if the handler is set to be a ring-3 one by a     32-bit guest, and the stack is misaligned. 2) #DB may be     raised during exception delivery when a breakpoint got     placed on a data structure involved in delivering the     exception. This can result in an endless loop when a     64-bit guest uses a non-zero IST for the vector 1 IDT     entry, but even without use of IST the time it takes     until a contributory fault would get raised (results     depending on the handler) may be quite long. This is     XSA-156.

The Xen Project reports :

When XSAVE/XRSTOR are not in use by Xen to manage guest extended register state, the initial values in the FPU stack and XMM registers seen by the guest upon first use are those left there by the previous user of those registers.

A malicious domain may be able to leverage this to obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys from another domain.
