Description
Description
[This CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the
text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.]
1) XSA-437 (CVE-2023-34321) addressed issues with overflows in
calculations involved in guests flushing caches through
GNTTABOP_cache_flush. Unfortunately the fix there introduced a
calculation which may underflow, resulting in a loop which would - at
least on 64-bit Arm - take excessively long, and which would likely
eventually crash the hypervisor.
This is CVE-2026-102699.
2) GNTTABOP_cache_flush may be issued on memory mapped from another
domain using the grant table interface. However there was no
restriction to disallow the use of invalidate-without-clean against
read-only grant mappings, which may corrupt the granted memory.
This is CVE-2026-102702.
