Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Xen hypervisor :

  • CVE-2018-7540 Jann Horn discovered that missing checks in page table freeing may result in denial of service.

  • CVE-2018-7541 Jan Beulich discovered that incorrect error handling in grant table checks may result in guest-to-host denial of service and potentially privilege escalation.

  • CVE-2018-7542 Ian Jackson discovered that insufficient handling of x86 PVH guests without local APICs may result in guest-to-host denial of service.
