- Details
-
The kvmsetmsrcommon function in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel through 3.8.4 does not ensure a required timepage alignment during an MSRKVMSYSTEM_TIME operation, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and host OS memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application.
