"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable KVM arm64 nested-virtualization path is reached by local KVM ioctls and guest execution through /dev/kvm, not by network packets or physical access.\nAC:L - Once nested virtualization is available and FEAT_XNX is absent or not exposed, the faulty mask deterministically treats nested stage-2 translations as executable. The attacker controls the guest execution and the relevant nested stage-2 descriptors in the practical attack setup.\nPR:L - The attacker needs local ability to create/run a KVM VM with nested EL2 enabled, but the traced ioctl path does not require real root or CAP_SYS_ADMIN. This is low privilege rather than high privilege.\nUI:N - No victim action is required after the attacker can run the nested VM; execution faults and shadow stage-2 mappings are handled automatically by KVM.\nS:C - The bug is in the host KVM enforcement of L1-controlled stage-2 execute permissions and can let an L2 guest violate the L1 hypervisor's security policy. That crosses a virtualization security boundary.\nC:H - By bypassing L1-enforced execute-never/W^X policy, an attacker can plausibly gain arbitrary execution in a protected nested guest context and read data protected by that policy. There is no host memory-corruption primitive, but the crossed nested-virtualization boundary supports high confidentiality impact.\nI:H - The flaw directly grants execute permission where the L1 stage-2 page tables intended to deny it. This can allow attacker-controlled code execution and full integrity compromise of the protected nested guest context.\nA:H - Arbitrary execution after bypassing the nested execute restriction can be used to crash or halt the protected guest/security domain. No host kernel panic is required for high availability impact across that boundary."
