[Xen-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Validate host VMX MSRs before accessing them



nvmx_msr_read_intercept() does not check the prerequisites before
accessing MSR_IA32_VMX_PROCBASED_CTLS2, MSR_IA32_VMX_EPT_VPID_CAP,
MSR_IA32_VMX_VMFUNC on the host.   Accessing these MSRs from a nested
VMX guest running on a host which does not support them will cause
Xen to crash with a GPF.

Euan Harris (2):
  nested vmx: Fix comment typos in nvmx_msr_read_intercept()
  nested vmx: Validate host VMX MSRs before accessing them
