CVE-2024-45817

In x86's APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller) architecture, error conditions are reported in a status register. Furthermore, the OS can opt to receive an interrupt when a new error occurs. It is possible to configure the error interrupt with an illegal vector, which generates an error when an error interrupt is raised. This case causes Xen to recurse through vlapic_error(). The recursion itself is bounded; errors accumulate in the the status register and only generate an interrupt when a new status bit becomes set. However, the lock protecting this state in Xen will try to be taken recursively, and deadlock.

(CVE-2024-36357) A NULL pointer dereference in the updating of the reference TSC area. (CVE-2025-27466) A NULL pointer dereference by assuming the SIM page is mapped when a synthetic timer message has to be delivered. (CVE-2025-58142) A race in the mapping of the reference TSC page, where a guest can get Xen to free a page while still present in the guest physical to machine (p2m) page tables. (CVE-2025-58143) An assertion is wrong there, where the case actually needs handling. A NULL pointer de-reference could result on a release build. (CVE-2025-58144) The P2M lock isn't held until a page reference was actually obtained (or the attempt to do so has failed). Otherwise the page can not only change type, but even ownership in between, thus allowing domain boundaries to be violated. (CVE-2025-58145) XAPI UTF-8 string handling. (CVE-2025-58146) Hypercalls using the HV_VP_SET Sparse format can cause vpmask_set() to write out of bounds when converting the bitmap to Xen's format. (CVE-2025-58147) Hypercalls using any input format can cause send_ipi() to read d->vcpu[] out-of-bounds, and operate on a wild vCPU pointer.(CVE-2025-58148) Incorrect removal of permissions on PCI device unplug.
