There is no network-facing path to xenbus_dev_probe().\nAC:L - An attacker who can influence xenstore or induce memory pressure can deterministically make watch_otherend() fail (kvasprintf ENOMEM, or xs_watch returning EINVAL/E2BIG on an over-long path or exhausted per-domain watch quota), and probe can be re-triggered repeatedly via bind/unbind. No condition outside the attacker's influence is required.\nPR:L - A local unprivileged user can create the allocation-failure condition that makes the watch registration fail while ordinary device probe/hotplug/resume activity drives xenbus_dev_probe(); no capability check guards the vulnerable error path itself.\nUI:N - The probe path runs automatically on device discovery, hotplug and resume, and can be re-driven by the attacker; no action by another user is required.\nS:U - The leaked resources and the resulting dangling-pointer accesses are all within the same kernel's security authority; no hypervisor or IOMMU boundary is crossed by the defect itself.\nC:H - The orphaned xenstore watch (blkback's backend_watch, pciback's be_watch) keeps a dangling pointer to a struct xenbus_device that is later kfree()d, so the watch callback performs use-after-free reads of dev->nodename/dev->otherend_id and echoes them into xenstore, exposing reclaimed kernel heap contents that an attacker can groom.\nI:H - The same dangling pointer is written through \u2014 xenbus_dev_fatal() reaches __xenbus_switch_state() which stores into dev->state, and dev_err() walks the freed struct device \u2014 giving a use-after-free write into a reallocated object, the classic primitive for heap corruption and control-flow hijack.\nA:H - The missing drv->remove() leaks event channels, grant references and kernel objects on every repeated probe failure, and the surviving watch dereferencing freed memory causes an oops or panic when it later fires."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux",
