"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nDrivers: hv: Don't reset VMBus connection state on error/exit paths\n\nIn two places, current code forces vmbus_connection.conn_state to\nDISCONNECTED prior to calling vmbus_disconnect(). But vmbus_disconnect()\ncalls vmbus_initiate_unload(), which unloads the VMBus connection\nonly if the conn_state is CONNECTED. Consequently, the connection\nremains and the Hyper-V host might continue to send messages or post\nVMBus interrupts.\n\nThe problem was introduced in commit 74347a99e73ae (\"x86/Hyper-V:\nUnload vmbus channel in hv panic callback\"), in that\nvmbus_initiate_unload() started checking the current connection\nstate before doing the unload. This commit removed some occurrences\nwhere conn_state was forced to DISCONNECTED, but these two remained,\napparently due to an oversight at the time.\n\nFix this by not forcing conn_state to DISCONNECTED during VMBus exit,\nor if a failure occurs when establishing the connection in the first\nplace. Whatever value conn_state has at the time is then read by\nvmbus_initiate_unload() to determine if there is a connection to\nbe unloaded."

"value": "AV:L - The attacker-controlled CHANNELMSG_VERSION_RESPONSE reaches vmbus_connect() through sysvec_hyperv_callback, vmbus_isr(), vmbus_on_msg_dpc(), and vmbus_onversion_response(); this is local Hyper-V IPC, not a network or physical protocol.\nAC:L - A backend can reject versions through 5.2, accept 5.1 in an isolation guest, then post rescind messages while the patched vmbus_connect() cleanup destroys its queues. The same backend controls both the state setup and racing messages.\nPR:N - vmbus_onversion_response() accepts the Hyper-V parent's VERSION_RESPONSE from the SynIC message page without guest credentials, capabilities, or authentication; the backend needs no privilege inside the guest.\nUI:N - hv_acpi_init() automatically calls vmbus_bus_init(), vmbus_alloc_synic_and_connect(), and vmbus_connect() during driver initialization; the backend supplies the responses without any victim action.\nS:U - The stale rescind_work_queue/work_queue accesses and resulting corruption occur within the same guest kernel that contains the vulnerable VMBus driver; no guest-to-host escape or IOMMU boundary bypass is produced.\nC:H - Without CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD, __vmbus_on_msg_dpc() can queue a rescind through a workqueue already RCU-freed by vmbus_disconnect(); this kernel heap use-after-free permits object reuse and guest-kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - queue_work() dereferences the freed workqueue's cpu_pwq and updates pool counters and work-list state, so reuse of that storage can turn continued host messages into kernel heap writes and control-flow corruption.\nA:H - Continued rescind or offer messages can make __queue_work() access a destroyed or freed workqueue before hv_synic_cleanup() disables the SynIC, causing a warning, invalid-pointer fault, kernel oops, or panic."
