QNX Hypervisor: Out-of-bounds read in virtual machine MSI-X table
Summary
A out-of-bounds read in the MSI-X table of the QNX Virtual Machine (QVM) affects QNX Hypervisor and QNX Hypervisor for Safety. An attacker with low privileges inside a guest VM can read memory outside the intended bounds, which may disclose information or crash the QVM. The attack is local and requires a foothold in a guest VM first, so it is not an internet-facing risk.
Affected
- QNX Hypervisor 8.0, 2.2 and 2.0\n- QNX Hypervisor for Safety 8.0, 2.2 and 2.0\n- Embedded or OEM products that bundle these versions (exact list unknown)
Fixed in
Unknown. No fixed version has been confirmed in the accessible sources. Check BlackBerry KB article 141343 and the BlackBerry/QNX customer portal.
Workaround
Unknown. No vendor-published workaround was found.
Exploitation
- Not known to be exploited in the wild; not listed in the KEV catalogue.\n- No public proof of concept found for this CVE.
Our recommendation
- Check whether your systems, appliances or embedded devices use QNX Hypervisor, and ask the OEM which build is shipped.\n- Track BlackBerry KB article 141343 and apply vendor patches as soon as a fixed version is published.\n- Restrict guest VM access to trusted users and monitor QVM behaviour until a fix is available.
Public exploits
PoC-in-GitHub, Metasploit and Exploit-DB list nothing for this CVE.
