CVE-2023-5090
Kernel: kvm: svm: improper check in svm_set_x2apic_msr_interception allows direct access to host x2apic msrs
02 Description
Kernel: kvm: svm: improper check in svm_set_x2apic_msr_interception allows direct access to host x2apic msrs
03 Exploitation and scoring
- Exploitation
- Not assessed. CISA has not published an exploitation assessment for this record, and it is not in the KEV catalog. That is an absence of assessment, not a finding of no risk.
- SSVC decision
- Not assessed by CISA
- EPSS probability
- 0.24% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Equal to or higher than the score of 15.7% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 5.5 (CVSS v3.x), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS vector
- CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- NVD analysis status
- Modified. NVD last modified this record on 2026-08-06.
- Red Hat severity
- Moderate. Red Hat's rating for its own products, not a CVSS rating.
Exploit-prediction scores from FIRST. Independent scoring and analysis status from the NVD. Vendor severity from Red Hat. Exploitation assessment and catalog membership from CISA.
