In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86/mmu: Only WARN in direct MMUs when overwriting shadow-present SPTE
Adjust KVM's sanity check against overwriting a shadow-present SPTE with a
another SPTE with a different target PFN to only apply to direct MMUs,
i.e. only to MMUs without shadowed gPTEs. While it's impossible for KVM
to overwrite a shadow-present SPTE in response to a guest write, writes
from outside the scope of KVM, e.g. from host userspace, aren't detected
by KVM's write tracking and so can break KVM's shadow paging rules.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) module. This vulnerability allows a host user to bypass KVM's memory management rules by overwriting critical memory structures. This can lead to a compromise of the virtual machine's memory integrity, potentially causing system instability or unexpected behavior within virtualized environments.
