CVE-2022-50227
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86/xen: Initialize Xen timer only once
Add a check for existing xen timers before initializing a new one.
Currently kvm_xen_init_timer() is called on every KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_TIMER, which is causing the following ODEBUG crash when vcpu->arch.xen.timer is already set.
ODEBUG: init active (active state 0) object type: hrtimer hint: xen_timer_callbac0 RIP: 0010:debug_print_object+0x16e/0x250 lib/debugobjects.c:502 Call Trace: __debug_object_init debug_hrtimer_init debug_init hrtimer_init kvm_xen_init_timer kvm_xen_vcpu_set_attr kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl kvm_vcpu_ioctl vfs_ioctl
