CVE ID:CVE-2021-26931
Description:An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel 2.6.39 through 5.10.16, as used in Xen. Block, net, and SCSI backends consider certain errors a plain bug, deliberately causing a kernel crash. For errors potentially being at least under the influence of guests (such as out of memory conditions), it isn't correct to assume a plain bug. Memory allocations potentially causing such crashes occur only when Linux is running in PV mode, though. This affects drivers/block/xen- blkback/blkback.c and drivers/xen/xen-scsiback.c.
Test IDs: 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.892610
