Subject: KVM: x86: PREFETCH and HINT_NOP should have SrcMem flag
From: Nadav Amit <[email protected]>
commit 3f6f1480d86bf9fc16c160d803ab1d006e3058d5 upstream.
The decode phase of the x86 emulator assumes that every instruction with the
ModRM flag, and which can be used with RIP-relative addressing, has either
SrcMem or DstMem. This is not the case for several instructions - prefetch,
hint-nop and clflush.
Adding SrcMem|NoAccess for prefetch and hint-nop and SrcMem for clflush.
This fixes CVE-2014-8480.
