Some of these operations\nmay not be executed in parallel, so a system-wide lock each is used.\nThe way those locks are acquired is, however, not providing any fairness.\nFurthermore, with XSM/Flask in use, the lock acquire will, for some\noperations, occur ahead of any permission checking.\n\nThe sysctl issue is CVE-2026-62426.\n\nThe platform-op issue is CVE-2026-62427.","published":"2026-07-28T13:19:02.000Z","lastModified":"2026-07-28T16:19:33.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"security@xen.org","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":8.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-412","CWE-667"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.0022,"percentile":0.12415,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.22%).
