Would the next VMRUN\n> execution for an active VM trigger a general protection fault and crash the\n> host?\n\nThe SNP_COMMIT command does not require the firmware to be in any\nparticular state. Skip initializing it if it was previously uninitialized.\n\nThe SEV-SNP firmware specification doc 56860 does not mention SNP_COMMIT in\nTable 5 as a command that is allowed in the UNINIT state, but it is in fact\nallowed and a future documentation update will reflect that.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-908"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5a1364da2f04217a36e2fdfa2db4ee025b383a20","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/67ed191b4c8bdf432a3f32d1eb302880b4795cd1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/74768f73854d647a6462f252dc8782ab8a835211","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7a361c74bb12f3398c388905f1d325be642cd36e"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-24T16:53:27.712498749+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64309","score":0.00172,"percentile":0.06506,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
