IOMMU memory write flaw lets a guest VM flood host, risking DoS.

common questions

Is CVE-2023-31364 being exploited?

Not confirmed. CVE-2023-31364 does not appear in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, which records only exploitation that has been observed and reported publicly. That is evidence of absence of a report, not evidence the flaw is unattacked. EPSS currently estimates a 0.25% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days.

How severe is CVE-2023-31364?

CVE-2023-31364 is rated High with a CVSS score of 8.3. Severity describes how bad exploitation would be, not how likely it is: pair it with exploitation evidence before deciding what to patch first.

Is there a patch for CVE-2023-31364?

Not known from our data. No patch reference has been recorded for CVE-2023-31364, which is not the same as no patch existing — a fix may have shipped without a tagged reference, or after this record was written. The vendor advisory is the only authority on whether a fix exists, and mitigations may be available regardless.

What does CVE-2023-31364 affect?

CVE-2023-31364 affects IOMMU-enabled virtualization platforms. Confirm the exact affected versions against the vendor advisory before deciding you are exposed.

What should I do about CVE-2023-31364?

Apply vendor mitigations when available; monitor host IOMMU activity and DoS indicators.

Exploitation status reflects CISA's KEV catalog as we last synced it. Check the catalog directly.

As published in the CVE Program record. A version outside these ranges is not a statement that it is unaffected — vendors sometimes understate a range, and distribution-backported builds carry upstream numbers that do not reflect what was patched into them.
