QID 352839

A flaw was found in the kvm's amd code for supporting svm nested virtualization.
The flaw occurs when processing the vmcb (virtual machine control block) provided by the l1 guest to spawn/handle a nested guest (l2).
Due to improper validation of the "int_ctl" field, this issue could allow a malicious l1 to enable avic support (advanced virtual interrupt controller) for the l2 guest.
As a result, the l2 guest would be allowed to read/write physical pages of the host, resulting in a crash of the entire system, leak of sensitive data or potential guest-to-host escape. (
( CVE-2021-3653) a flaw was found in the kvm's amd code for supporting svm nested virtualization.
Due to improper validation of the "virt_ext" field, this issue could allow a malicious l1 to disable both vmload/vmsave intercepts and vls (virtual vmload/vmsave) for the l2 guest.
( CVE-2021-3656) a flaw was found in the linux kernel's overlayfs subsystem in the way the user mounts the tmpfs filesystem with overlayfs.
This flaw allows a local user to gain access to hidden files that should not be accessible. (
( CVE-2021-3732) a race problem was seen in the vt_k_ioctl in drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c in the linux kernel, which may cause an out of bounds read in vt as the write access to vc_mode is not protected by lock-in vt_ioctl (kdsetmde).
The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality. (
( CVE-2021-3753) a flaw was found in the linux kernel, where it incorrectly computes the access permissions of a shadow page.
This issue leads to a missing guest protection page fault. (
( CVE-2021-38198) a flaw was found in the linux kernel.
A race condition was discovered in the ext4 subsystem.
The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability. (
( CVE-2021-40490)
