Vulnerability CVE-2015-2150


Published: 2015-03-12

Description:
Xen 3.3.x through 4.5.x and the Linux kernel through 3.19.1 do not properly restrict access to PCI command registers, which might allow local guest OS users to cause a denial of service (non-maskable interrupt and host crash) by disabling the (1) memory or (2) I/O decoding for a PCI Express device and then accessing the device, which triggers an Unsupported Request (UR) response.

Type:

CWE-264

(Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls)
