In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: SVM: Inject #UD for INVLPGA if EFER.SVME=0 INVLPGA should cause a #UD when EFER.SVME is not set. Add a check to properly inject #UD when EFER.SVME=0. [sean: tag for stable@] A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's virtualization component, known as KVM. This vulnerability arises when a specific instruction, INVLPGA, is used in a virtualized environment without the proper security setting (EFER.SVME). The system fails to trigger an expected error, which could allow a local attacker to bypass security controls or disrupt the system's operation, leading to a denial of service.
