Title
Storage Migration Redirection via VDI.other_config maps_to
Summary
The maps_to key in VDI.other_config in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) is used during cross-pool migration to map local VDIs to remote destinations. An attacker with root access (via BOC-1) can modify maps_to in the XAPI database mid-migration, redirecting disk operations to an attacker-controlled VDI. The import code reads the modified value via Ref.of_string() with no validation, enabling cross-tenant data exfiltration and data corruption during live migration.
CWE
  • CWE-20 - Improper Input Validation
  • CWE-862 - Missing Authorization
