CVE-2023-34326: Xen

High severity, CVSS 7.8. EPSS: 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The caching invalidation guidelines from the AMD-Vi specification (48882—Rev 3.07-PUB—Oct 2022) is incorrect on some hardware, as devices will malfunction (see stale DMA mappings) if some fields of the DTE are updated but the IOMMU TLB is not flushed. Such stale DMA mappings can point to memory ranges not owned by the guest, thus allowing access to unindented memory regions.

Affected products

• Xen Xen: any version
