It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-15588 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-2017-15588/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15588/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-15588","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15588/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-15588","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2017-15588","DEBIAN-CVE-2017-15588","GHSA-5chc-m6j7-c756","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-15588"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Xen hypervisor","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in Xen allows guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on the host, requiring immediate patching by virtualization administrators.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"xen","vendor":"xen"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.9.x allowing x86 PV guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on the host OS because of a race condition that can cause a stale TLB entry.","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":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-15588","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"xen:xen","products":["xen:xen"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-15589"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-15587"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-10-18","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-2017-10920","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":"A race condition in Xen allows guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on the host, requiring immediate patching by virtualization administrators.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15588/"}
