CVE-2024-31142 (GCVE-0-2024-31142)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-05-16 13:39 – Updated: 2025-11-04 18:30

Title

x86: Incorrect logic for BTC/SRSO mitigations

Summary

Because of a logical error in XSA-407 (Branch Type Confusion), the mitigation is not applied properly when it is intended to be used. XSA-434 (Speculative Return Stack Overflow) uses the same infrastructure, so is equally impacted. For more details, see: https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-407.html https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-434.html

Severity

7.5 (High)
