  "cwe" : "CWE-476",
  "details" : [ "With shadow paging enabled, the INVPCID instruction results in a call to kvm_mmu_invpcid_gva. If INVPCID is executed with CR0.PG=0, the invlpg callback is not set and the result is a NULL pointer dereference.", "A flaw was found in KVM. With shadow paging enabled if INVPCID is executed with CR0.PG=0, the invlpg callback is not set, and the result is a NULL pointer dereference. This flaw allows a guest user to cause a kernel oops condition on the host, resulting in a denial of service." ],
  "statement" : "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 did not provide support for INVPCID in shadow paging mode and therefore are not affected by this issue.",
