  "title": "KVM: s390: Free guest debug data on vcpu destroy",
  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  KVM: s390: Free guest debug data on vcpu destroy  kvm_s390_clear_bp_data() is only called from kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_guest_debug(), i.e. when user space changes or disables debugging. A vCPU that is destroyed while hardware breakpoints are still armed - the normal case when the VMM just exits or crashes - leaks hw_bp_info, hw_wp_info and all old_data buffers, since generic KVM frees the vCPU right after kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy().  That is bounded by MAX_BP_COUNT entries, so roughly 8 KiB per vCPU, but it is unbounded over VM lifetimes. The allocations are GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT, so the charge also outlives the exiting process and pins dying memcgs.  Fix by clearing the debug data on vCPU destruction. Calling it unconditionally is fine: struct kvm_vcpu is zero allocated, so for a vCPU that never enabled debugging the counters are 0 and the pointers NULL.",
