CVE-2024-25742 (published 2024-05-17T22:15Z)

In the Linux kernel before 6.9, an untrusted hypervisor can inject virtual interrupt 29 (#VC) at any point in time and can trigger its handler. This affects AMD SEV-SNP and AMD SEV-ES.

msg: x86/sev: Harden #VC instruction emulation somewhat

Compare the opcode bytes at rIP for each #VC exit reason to verify the
instruction which raised the #VC exception is actually the right one.
