From 09458c2b2792e233a766d5a8a4bf7e392c34a50e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fuqian Huang Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2019 12:18:17 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: work around leak of uninitialized stack contents commit 541ab2aeb28251bf7135c7961f3a6080eebcc705 upstream. Emulation of VMPTRST can incorrectly inject a page fault when passed an operand that points to an MMIO address. The page fault will use uninitialized kernel stack memory as the CR2 and error code. The right behavior would be to abort the VM with a KVM_EXIT_INTERNAL_ERROR exit to userspace; however, it is not an easy fix, so for now just ensure that the error code and CR2 are zero.
