Title
Storage Protocol Injection via sm_config
Summary
A user with the vm-admin role in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can write arbitrary key-value pairs to VDI.sm_config and SR.sm_config. These fields store internal storage driver state including VHD chain metadata, GC control flags, and encryption key hashes. XAPI performs zero validation and never notifies the storage backend. SM drivers consume the attacker's data as authoritative internal state, turning the hypervisor into a silent proxy that forwards corrupted commands to the storage subsystem through the trusted management channel. Seven exploitation scenarios are confirmed with live evidence including VHD chain severance, SR-wide crash, GC misdirection, and storage saturation.

Title
Static Route Injection via Network.other_config
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can inject arbitrary static routes into the host routing table by setting Network.other_config:static-routes to attacker-controlled subnet/gateway pairs. The value is parsed by nm.ml and applied directly to the bridge interface with no validation on subnet, gateway reachability, or conflicts with existing routes. Injected routes redirect storage network traffic, management traffic, or cloud subnet traffic through an attacker-controlled gateway.

Title
Cross-VM Traffic Sniffing via VIF.other_config Promiscuous Mode
Summary
A user with the vm-admin role in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can enable promiscuous mode on a VIF bridge port by setting VIF.other_config:promiscuous to true. The VIF hotplug script writes to /sys/class/net/vifX.Y/brport/promisc, causing the guest VM to receive all frames on the Linux bridge including traffic destined for other VMs. This enables cross-VM traffic sniffing in multi-tenant environments using Linux bridge networking. The key has no per-key RBAC protection and the attack requires a single API call.

Title
MTU Manipulation / Network Partition via PIF.other_config
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can cause network partition by setting the mtu key in PIF.other_config to an extreme value. The nm.ml module parses the value with int_of_string and applies it as the interface MTU with no range validation. Setting MTU too low on the management interface causes packet drops that partition the host from the pool. On HA-enabled pools, management network partitioning triggers HA fencing.

Title
VIF NIC Offload Disablement via VIF.other_config ethtool Keys
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can disable NIC offload features (TSO, GSO, etc.) on VIF backend devices by setting ethtool-tso=off and similar keys in VIF.other_config. The VIF hotplug script (vif-real:85-97) executes ethtool -K to disable offloads. This forces host CPU to perform software segmentation, increasing CPU utilization and degrading performance for co-located VMs. VIF.other_config has zero map_keys_roles entries - all ethtool keys are writable by vm-admin.

Title
Gateway/DNS Routing Hijack via PIF.other_config defaultroute/peerdns
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can hijack host-level network routing and DNS resolution by setting defaultroute=true and peerdns=true on an attacker-chosen PIF via PIF.other_config. All host outbound traffic routes through the selected PIF gateway, and all DNS queries resolve through the selected PIF DNS server. This enables man-in-the-middle attacks on management and storage traffic and DNS poisoning at the host level. PIF.other_config has the highest merge precedence in the other_config merge chain.

Title
Network Sharing Bypass via Network.other_config assume_network_is_shared
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can bypass network locality checks by setting assume_network_is_shared=true in Network.other_config. The key is checked at xapi_network_attach_helpers.ml:132-133. When set, XAPI treats the network as shared across all hosts regardless of actual PIF connectivity, allowing VMs to start on hosts without network infrastructure. This causes VIF attachment failures or silent connectivity loss. The field has no map_keys_roles entries for infrastructure keys.
Severity
4.1 (Medium)

Title
Filesystem Layout Manipulation via SR.sm_config nosubdir/subdir
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can manipulate the filesystem layout of NFS and MooseFS storage repositories by modifying the nosubdir or subdir key in SR.sm_config after SR creation. Changing nosubdir causes the driver to look for VDIs in the wrong directory. All VDIs appear missing, causing VM boot failures and complete data inaccessibility for all VMs on the affected SR. The attack is reversible but causes service disruption.

Title
Boot Order Manipulation via VM.HVM_boot_params order
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can set an arbitrary boot order string in VM.HVM_boot_params:order. The value is passed verbatim to QEMU as the -boot order argument at device.ml:3957-3958. XAPI performs no validation beyond replacing empty values with the default. QEMU ignores unrecognized characters, limiting impact to forcing PXE network boot when the attacker controls DHCP/PXE infrastructure. The field has zero map_keys_roles entries.

Title
LUNperVDI Mode Manipulation via SR.sm_config
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can corrupt the VDI management mode of a storage repository by adding or removing the LUNperVDI key in SR.sm_config. This key controls whether the SR maps one LUN per VDI or uses shared LUNs with VHD containers. Mode mismatch causes VDI creation, deletion, and scanning failures. The sm_config field has zero map_keys_roles entries and remains writable after SR creation despite being intended as driver-managed metadata.

Summary
A user with the vm-admin role in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can set the real-time I/O scheduling class on VBD kernel threads by writing sched=rt and class=highest to VBD.qos_algorithm_params. xenopsd invokes ionice -c1 -n0 on the affected threads, granting strict priority over all best-effort and idle I/O on the host. This starves I/O for every other VM on the same host. The change takes effect immediately without VBD replug and produces no security alert.

Title
Config Drive Misidentification via VDI.other_config config-drive
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can mark any VDI as a cloud-init config drive by setting config-drive=true in VDI.other_config. The key is defined in xapi_globs.ml as a sync key and consumed during migration and import operations. Guest cloud-init agents misinterpret the flagged VDI's contents as trusted hypervisor-provided metadata, potentially initializing the guest with attacker-controlled configuration.

Title
Console Access Manipulation via VM.other_config disable_pv_vnc
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can disable the VNC console for any PV guest by setting disable_pv_vnc in VM.other_config. The key is consumed at xapi_xenops.ml:497 via a presence check - when the key exists, xenopsd sets vncterm=false and the VNC terminal is not started. In multi-tenant environments, this denies console access to VMs, preventing operator troubleshooting and incident response.

Title
Arbitrary Integer Passthrough to ionice via VBD.qos_algorithm_params
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can pass arbitrary integer values to the Linux ionice binary via the class key in VBD.qos_algorithm_params. The qos_class parser at xapi_xenops.ml:595-600 accepts any integer via Other(int_of_string s), and Ionice.to_class_param passes Other x directly as the -n argument. No range validation is performed - valid range is 0-7 but negative and extreme values are accepted. Kernel behavior with out-of-range ionice values is undefined. Changes take effect immediately without VBD replug.

Title
Cross-Pool Metadata Injection via VDI.xenstore_data on Pool Join
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can poison VDI.xenstore_data on a source pool, and the poisoned metadata crosses into a target pool during pool join or cross-pool migration. The pool join code at xapi_pool.ml:1215 copies VDI records including xenstore_data without re-validation or sanitization. This enables a compromised vm-admin on one pool to inject attacker-controlled storage metadata into a separate, previously uncompromised pool.

Title
VDI Lifecycle Behavior Manipulation via VDI.other_config on_boot/cbt_enabled
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can modify VDI.other_config on_boot and cbt_enabled keys without validation. The on_boot key controls VDI reset-on-boot behavior, and cbt_enabled is an other_config mirror of the first-class CBT field read by SM drivers at VDI.py:831-837. Manipulation changes VDI persistence behavior (data loss on reboot) and change block tracking state. The VDI.other_config field has map_keys_roles entries only for UI keys.

Rate Limit Removal via kbps=0 in VIF.qos_algorithm_params
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can silently disable VIF rate limiting by setting kbps=0 in VIF.qos_algorithm_params. XAPI accepts the zero value without validation. xenopsd correctly rejects it at plug time (bytes_per_interval fails the >0L check), but the rejection is invisible - only a debug-level log is emitted. The XAPI database shows rate limiting as configured while xenstore has no rate enforced, creating a false positive for administrators and monitoring tools.

I/O Scheduling Downgrade to Idle Class via VBD.qos_algorithm_params
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can downgrade a target VM's I/O scheduling class to idle by setting sched=idle in VBD.qos_algorithm_params. The idle class causes the kernel to service VBD kernel threads only when no other I/O is pending. Under any host I/O load, the target VM experiences severe I/O starvation. The field has zero map_keys_roles entries, and QoS changes take effect immediately via hot-apply without VBD replug.

Title
FIST Namespace Exposure via VM.xenstore_data
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can inject FIST/-prefixed keys into VM.xenstore_data, polluting the Fault Injection Service Testing namespace. The FIST prefix is included in allowed_xsdata_prefixes at domain.ml:164, allowing these keys to pass through the xenopsd filter. While XAPI's actual fault injection reads /tmp/fist_* files on disk (not xenstore), the namespace pollution persists across VM restarts and establishes a pre-positioned injection path for future xenstore-based FIST consumption.

Title
Guest Agent Script Execution Enablement via Pool.other_config
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can enable execution of arbitrary scripts within guest VMs by setting Pool.other_config:allow_guest_agent_run_script to true. This enables the guest agent run-script capability pool-wide, allowing the operator to execute commands inside any VM with the guest agent installed. This is a privilege escalation from host-level management to guest-level code execution. The key has no per-key RBAC protection and no write-time validation.

Title
Backend-Kind I/O Driver Type Confusion via VBD.other_config
Summary
A user with the vm-admin role in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can change the storage I/O backend driver for any VBD by writing to VBD.other_config:backend-kind. This key selects whether kernel blkback or userspace tapdisk handles I/O. An attacker can force a VBD to use an unexpected backend, bypassing tapdisk-level access controls, monitoring, and VHD chain processing. The key has no per-key RBAC protection and accepts arbitrary values.

Title
Network Offload Disablement via PIF.other_config ethtool Keys
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can disable NIC hardware offload features on any physical interface by writing ethtool-gro=off, ethtool-tso=off, etc. to PIF.other_config. These keys are consumed at nm.ml:45-110 and applied via xcp-networkd. Disabling offloads forces software packet processing, degrading performance for all VMs and management traffic. The ethtool-gro key overrides the PIF.properties:gro first-class field via a backward compatibility path. PIF.other_config has zero map_keys_roles entries and highest merge precedence in the other_config chain.

This key has no per-key RBAC protection. A system-domain VM bypasses VBD sharing constraints (allowing concurrent write access to other VMs' virtual disks), gains access to the query_services operation, and bypasses lifecycle restrictions reserved for XAPI infrastructure components.

Guest Agent Poisoning via VM.xenstore_data vm-data Injection
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can inject arbitrary key-value pairs into a guest domain's xenstore vm-data/ directory by writing to VM.xenstore_data. Guest agents read this directory as trusted hypervisor configuration with no mechanism to distinguish legitimate data from attacker-injected data. Guest agents consuming xenstore configuration - server endpoints, update sources, monitoring targets - are directed to attacker-controlled infrastructure. The field has zero per-key RBAC protection.

Title
Memory Ratio Bounds Relaxation via Pool.other_config
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can relax memory ratio bounds for all VMs by writing extreme values to Pool.other_config:memory-ratio-hvm and memory-ratio-pv. These keys define the lower bound ratio for memory-dynamic-min relative to memory-static-max (default 0.25). Setting to 0 allows VMs to have near-zero dynamic minimum memory, causing guest OS instability or crashes pool-wide when the balloon driver reclaims memory. No range validation exists. The field has no map_keys_roles entries for infrastructure keys.

Title
SR Destruction Protection Bypass and DoS via SR.other_config indestructible
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can manipulate the indestructible key in SR.other_config to either block SR destruction (DoS - requires direct database manipulation to reverse) or remove destruction protection from a legitimately protected SR (security bypass). The assert_sr_not_indestructible function at xapi_sr.ml:433-442 checks this key before SR.destroy and SR.forget. No map_keys_roles protection exists for infrastructure keys.

Title
Pool-Wide OVS Fail-Mode Denial of Service via Pool.other_config
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can cause a complete network outage across every host in the pool by setting Pool.other_config:vswitch-controller-fail-mode to secure. This pool-level key serves as the default fail mode for every OVS bridge without a per-network override. Without an SDN controller - the common deployment case - all network traffic is dropped on all bridges across all hosts pool-wide, affecting every VM, management connection, and storage path in the pool.

Title
SMTP Server Redirection / Credential Exfiltration via Pool.other_config
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can redirect all pool alert emails through an attacker-controlled SMTP server by writing ssmtp-mailhub and related ssmtp-* keys to Pool.other_config. The mail-alarm script uses these keys as unsanitized macro replacements in the ssmtp configuration template, enabling SMTP server redirection, alert data exfiltration, and potential SMTP credential theft.

Title
Negative kbps Injection in VIF.qos_algorithm_params
Summary
A vm-admin in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can inject negative kbps values into VIF.qos_algorithm_params. XAPI parses via Int64.of_string without sign validation. xenopsd computes a negative bytes_per_interval which fails the >0L bounds check, silently dropping the rate limit. The XAPI database shows the negative value as the configured rate while no rate is enforced in xenstore, creating an observability gap for administrators and monitoring tools.

Title
I/O Scheduler Sysfs Injection via SR.other_config scheduler
Summary
A pool-operator in XAPI-based hypervisors (XenServer, XCP-ng) can write an arbitrary string to the kernel I/O scheduler sysfs interface by setting the scheduler key in SR.other_config. The SM driver reads the value at SR.py:203-224 and passes it to util.set_scheduler, which writes it to /sys/block/*/queue/scheduler with zero XAPI-side validation. The kernel validates the value (rejecting unknown schedulers), limiting direct impact. The concern is the architectural pattern: user-controlled XAPI data flows directly to a kernel control interface. The field has no map_keys_roles entries for infrastructure keys.
