Collected exploitation and prediction evidence
Risk source coverageCISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.
No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

PublishedKVM: arm64: Transfer the hyp stack pages out of the host stage-2
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: arm64: Transfer the hyp stack pages out of the host stage-2 fix_host_ownership() walks only the linear-map alias of each memblock region, and the per-CPU hyp stack, mapped in the private VA range for its guard page, has none. Walk each stack's VA range with the same walker.
