In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86/mmu: Ensure NX huge page recovery thread is alive before waking
When waking a VM's NX huge page recovery thread, ensure the thread is
actually alive before trying to wake it. Now that the thread is spawned
on-demand during KVM_RUN, a VM without a recovery thread is reachable via
the related module params.
