             Xen Security Advisory CVE-2013-1918 / XSA-45
                              version 2

          Several long latency operations are not preemptible

UPDATES IN VERSION 2
====================

Patches for xen-unstable refreshed to apply on top of xen.git#staging
commit 9626d1c1.

Public release.

ISSUE DESCRIPTION
=================

Page table manipulation operations for PV guests can take significant
amounts of time, as they require all present branches to have their
type (and thus contents) verified. While the most frequently used
operations had been made preemptible in the past, some code paths
involving potentially deep page table traversal were still trying to
do their entire work in a single step.

IMPACT
======

Malicious or buggy PV guest kernels can mount a denial of service attack
affecting the whole system.

VULNERABLE SYSTEMS
==================

All Xen versions are vulnerable.

The vulnerability is only exposed by PV guests.

MITIGATION
==========

Running only HVM guests, or PV guests with trusted kernels, will avoid
this vulnerability.

RESOLUTION
==========

Applying the appropriate attached patch series resolves this issue.

             Xen Security Advisory CVE-2013-1952 / XSA-49
                              version 2

        VT-d interrupt remapping source validation flaw for bridges

UPDATES IN VERSION 2
====================

Public release.

ISSUE DESCRIPTION
=================

Interrupt remapping table entries for MSI interrupts set up by bridge
devices did not get any source validation set up on them, allowing
misbehaving or malicious guests to inject interrupts into the domain
owning the bridges.

In a typical Xen system bridge devices are owned by domain 0, leaving
it vulnerable to such an attack. Such a DoS is likely to have an impact
on other guests running in the system.

IMPACT
======

A malicious domain, given access to a device which bus mastering
capable, can mount a denial of service attack affecting the whole
system.

VULNERABLE SYSTEMS
==================

Xen version 4.0 onwards is vulnerable.

Only systems using Intel VT-d for PCI passthrough are vulnerable.

Any domain which is given access to a PCI device that is bus mastering
capable can take advantage of this vulnerability.

MITIGATION
==========

This issue can be avoided by not assigning PCI devices to untrusted
guests.

RESOLUTION
==========

Applying the appropriate attached patch resolves this issue.
