Vulnerability Title
Unconditionally do TLB flushing ahead of page scrubbing
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
x86 PV guests can free memory pages while still keeping a stale TLB entry pointing to them. A TLB flush is only issued by Xen (if needed) when the page is re-used. Since it's possible for the page to be scrubbed ahead of the TLB flush, there's a window where a PV guest can modify an already scrubbed page.
