Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
KVM: nSVM: Always use vmcb01 in VMLOAD/VMSAVE emulation<br />
<br />
Commit cc3ed80ae69f ("KVM: nSVM: always use vmcb01 to for vmsave/vmload<br />
of guest state") made KVM always use vmcb01 for the fields controlled by<br />
VMSAVE/VMLOAD, but it missed updating the VMLOAD/VMSAVE emulation code<br />
to always use vmcb01.<br />
<br />
As a result, if VMSAVE/VMLOAD is executed by an L2 guest and is not<br />
intercepted by L1, KVM will mistakenly use vmcb02. Always use vmcb01<br />
instead of the current VMCB.
