IBM PowerVM Platform KeyStore (IBM PowerVM Hypervisor FW950.00 through FW950.90, FW1030.00 through FW1030.60, FW1050.00 through FW1050.20, and FW1060.00 through FW1060.10 functionality can be compromised if an attacker gains service access to the HMC. An attacker that gains service access to the HMC can locate and through a series of service procedures decrypt data contained in the Platform KeyStore.

IBM PowerVM Hypervisor FW950.00 through FW950.90, FW1020.00 through FW1020.40, and FW1030.00 through FW1030.30 could allow a system administrator to obtain sensitive partition information. IBM X-Force ID: 269695.

IBM PowerVM Hypervisor FW950.00 through FW950.90, FW1020.00 through FW1020.40, and FW1030.00 through FW1030.30 could reveal sensitive partition data to a system administrator. IBM X-Force ID: 257135.

IBM PowerVM Hypervisor FW950.00 through FW950.71, FW1010.00 through FW1010.40, FW1020.00 through FW1020.20, and FW1030.00 through FW1030.11 could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information if they gain service access to the HMC. IBM X-Force ID: 247592.

IBM PowerVM Hypervisor FW860.00 through FW860.B3, FW950.00 through FW950.70, FW1010.00 through FW1010.50, FW1020.00 through FW1020.30, and FW1030.00 through FW1030.10 could allow a local attacker with control a partition that has been assigned SRIOV virtual function (VF) to cause a denial of service to a peer partition or arbitrary data corruption. IBM X-Force ID: 253175.

An internally discovered vulnerability in PowerVM on IBM Power9 and Power10 systems could allow an attacker with privileged user access to a logical partition to perform an undetected violation of the isolation between logical partitions which could lead to data leakage or the execution of arbitrary code in other logical partitions on the same physical server. IBM X-Force ID: 252706.

After performing a sequence of Power FW950, FW1010 maintenance operations a SRIOV network adapter can be improperly configured leading to desired VEPA configuration being disabled. IBM X-Force ID: 229695.

An attacker that gains service access to the FSP (POWER9 only) or gains admin authority to a partition can compromise partition firmware.

IBM PowerVM Hypervisor FW860, FW940, FW950, and FW1010, through a specific sequence of VM management operations could lead to a violation of the isolation between peer VMs. IBM X-Force ID: 210019.

IBM PowerVM Hypervisor FW940, FW950, and FW1010 could allow an authenticated user to cause the system to crash using a specially crafted IBMi Hypervisor call. IBM X-Force ID: 210894.
