kernel: xen: VT-d interrupt remapping source validation flaw for bridges

Published May 13, 2013

Description

Xen 4.x, when using Intel VT-d for a bus mastering capable PCI device, does not properly check the source when accessing a bridge device's interrupt remapping table entries for MSI interrupts, which allows local guest domains to cause a denial of service (interrupt injection) via unspecified vectors.
