Description Marcus Meissner 2016-08-19 13:56:33 UTC 
via cve db

The em_sysenter function in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel before 3.18.5, when the guest OS lacks SYSENTER MSR initialization, allows guest OS users to gain guest OS privileges or cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) by triggering use of a 16-bit code segment for emulation of a SYSENTER instruction.

Comment 4 Joerg Roedel 2016-08-22 12:11:49 UTC 
Taking a look.
Comment 5 Joerg Roedel 2016-08-22 12:36:27 UTC 
SLE12 branches and opensuse leap 42.1 have the fix already. SLE11 is still affected by this, I am looking into backporting the fix.
Comment 6 Joerg Roedel 2016-08-23 13:37:30 UTC 
Fix is pushed to my cve/linux-3.0/for-next branch.
