Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-10 21:51:55 UTC
Unverified ownership in Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) firmware could allow a privileged attacker with access to a malicious hypervisor to overwrite guest memory if segmented Reverse Map Table (RMP) is enabled potentially resulting in loss of guest data integrity.
