Vulnerability CVE-2012-3495

Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2012-3495 (CCN-78266)

Assigned:

2012-09-05

Published:

2012-09-05

Updated:

2017-07-01

Summary:

The physdev_get_free_pirq hypercall in arch/x86/physdev.c in Xen 4.1.x and Citrix XenServer 6.0.2 and earlier uses the return value of the get_free_pirq function as an array index without checking that the return value indicates an error, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (invalid memory write and host crash) and possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
