  Hello,

Linux kernel built with the Kernel-based Virtual Machine(CONFIG_KVM) support is
vulnerable to an out-of-bounds memory access issue. It could occur on x86
platform, while servicing I/O APIC requests with larger vcpu_id.


A guest user/process could use this flaw to crash the host kernel resulting in
DoS or it could potentially be used to escalate privileges on a host.
