Description
[This CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.] There are multiple issues related to the handling and accessing of guest memory pages in the viridian code: 1. A NULL pointer dereference in the updating of the reference TSC area. This is CVE-2025-27466. 2. A NULL pointer dereference by assuming the SIM page is mapped when a synthetic timer message has to be delivered. This is CVE-2025-58142. 3. 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. This is CVE-2025-58143.

Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

CVE-2025-58143 is a race condition vulnerability in the Xen hypervisor's viridian code. It occurs during the mapping of the reference TSC (Time Stamp Counter) page, where a guest virtual machine can cause Xen to free a memory page while that page is still present in the guest's physical to machine (p2m) page tables. This improper handling of guest memory pages can lead to instability or crashes.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

This vulnerability can impact you by potentially causing the Xen hypervisor to free memory pages prematurely, which may lead to guest virtual machine crashes, denial of service, or other unpredictable behavior affecting system stability and reliability.
