An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-10920 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Xen Xen. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-10920/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-10920/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-10920","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-10920/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-10920","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2017-10920","DEBIAN-CVE-2017-10920","GHSA-4rcm-4m7v-65fw","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-10920"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Xen hypervisor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Guest OS users can exploit Xen grant-table mishandling to cause memory corruption, leading to denial of service or privileged host access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"xen","vendor":"xen"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The grant-table feature in Xen through 4.8.x mishandles a GNTMAP_device_map and GNTMAP_host_map mapping, when followed by only a GNTMAP_host_map unmapping, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (count mismanagement and memory corruption) or obtain privileged host OS access, aka XSA-224 bug 1.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10920","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"xen:xen","products":["xen:xen"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10921"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10919"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-07-05","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10912","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10918","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10921","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Mutiple vulnerabilities in the Viridian interface","id":"CVE-2025-27466","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Mutiple vulnerabilities in the Viridian interface","id":"CVE-2025-58142","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Mutiple vulnerabilities in the Viridian interface","id":"CVE-2025-58143","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-11"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Guest OS users can exploit Xen grant-table mishandling to cause memory corruption, leading to denial of service or privileged host access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-10920/"}
