CVE-2021-28039

TITLE

Xen Used in Linux Kernel Resource Depletion Vulnerability

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2021-003868

DESCRIPTION

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel 5.9.x through 5.11.3, as used with Xen. In some less-common configurations, an x86 PV guest OS user can crash a Dom0 or driver domain via a large amount of I/O activity. The issue relates to misuse of guest physical addresses when a configuration has CONFIG_XEN_UNPOPULATED_ALLOC but not CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG. Linux kernel 5.9.x through 5.11.3 contains a security vulnerability that could be exploited by an attacker to cause the driver to crash
