Thus, kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() and\nvmx_update_cr8_intercept() are not called before VM entry, which results\nin a high, stale TPR_THRESHOLD. This is problematic due to the following\nsentence in 28.2.1.1 \"VM-Execution Control Fields\" in the SDM:\n\n The following check is performed if the “use TPR shadow” VM-execution\n control is 1 and the “virtualize APIC accesses” and “virtual-interrupt\n delivery” VM-execution controls are both 0: the value of bits 3:0 of\n the TPR threshold VM-execution control field should not be greater\n than the value of bits 7:4 of VTPR.\n\nThis error condition is typically not observed when KVM runs on a bare\nmetal system because modern processors support APICv, which enables\nvirtual-interrupt delivery, and which KVM uses when possible. This\ncauses the processor to no longer generate TPR-below-threshold exits\nand to no longer check TPR_THRESHOLD on entry. However, when running\non older platforms, or under nested virtualization on a hypervisor that\ndoes not support virtual-interrupt delivery and enforces this check\n(like Hyper-V) this can cause a VM entry failure with hardware error\n0x7, as seen in [1].\n\nCall kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() if apic_update_ppr() does not\nfind a deliverable interrupt (and thus does not raise KVM_REQ_EVENT).\nRemove calls to kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() on paths that end up in\napic_update_ppr(), as they now become redundant. This ensures that any\npath that updates the guest's PPR also figures out if KVM needs to wait\nfor a TPR change (using TPR_THRESHOLD on VMX or CR8 intercepts on SVM).","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-07-25T08:52:05.119+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-21T12:43:24.391+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n \"product\": \"Linux\",\n \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n \"programFiles\": [\n \"arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c\",\n \"arch/x86/kvm/x86.c\"\n ],\n \"versions\": [\n {\n \"version\": \"eb90f3417a0cc4880e979ccc84e41890d410ea5b\",\n \"lessThan\": \"a7277b66511983b57e345c0fba21f1810fd07c0f\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"git\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"eb90f3417a0cc4880e979ccc84e41890d410ea5b\",\n \"lessThan\": \"ff9c4c6428883182960cfe5c78928f0896d80ebc\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"git\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"eb90f3417a0cc4880e979ccc84e41890d410ea5b\",\n \"lessThan\": \"8c8e8ac22ee17d52f9eb2bc814bca7fab90fb8df\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"git\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"eb90f3417a0cc4880e979ccc84e41890d410ea5b\",\n \"lessThan\": \"bb365a506b1e6fb050c0fceaad354fe395385ef0\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"git\"\n }\n ]\n }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n \"product\": \"Linux\",\n \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\",\n \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n \"programFiles\": [\n \"arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c\",\n \"arch/x86/kvm/x86.c\"\n ],\n \"versions\": [\n {\n \"version\": \"4.11\",\n \"status\": \"affected\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"0\",\n \"lessThan\": \"4.11\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"6.12.114\",\n \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.12.*\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"6.18.39\",\n \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.18.*\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"7.1.4\",\n \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"7.1.*\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"7.2\",\n \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\"\n }\n ]\n }"}],"metrics":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a7277b66511983b57e345c0fba21f1810fd07c0f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ff9c4c6428883182960cfe5c78928f0896d80ebc","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8c8e8ac22ee17d52f9eb2bc814bca7fab90fb8df","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bb365a506b1e6fb050c0fceaad354fe395385ef0"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-64513","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-64513","identifiers":["CVE-2026-64513"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
