The grant-table feature in Xen through 4.8.x mishandles a GNTMAP_device_map and GNTMAP_host_map mapping, when followed by only a GNTMAP_host_map unmapping, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (count mismanagement and memory corruption) or obtain privileged host OS access, aka XSA-224 bug 1.

ISSUE DESCRIPTION
We have discovered a number of bugs in the code mapping and unmapping
grant references.
* If a grant is mapped with both the GNTMAP_device_map and
GNTMAP_host_map flags, but unmapped only with host_map, the device_map
portion remains but the page reference counts are lowered as though it
had been removed. This bug can be leveraged cause a page's reference
counts and type counts to fall to zero while retaining writeable
mappings to the page.
* Under some specific conditions, if a grant is mapped with both the
GNTMAP_device_map and GNTMAP_host_map flags, the operation may not
grab sufficient type counts. When the grant is then unmapped, the
type count wil

## Abstract
Cloud computing has emerged as a corner stone of today's computing landscape. More and more customers who outsource their infrastructure benefit from the manageability, scalability and cost saving that come with cloud computing. Those benefits get amplified by the trend towards microservices. Instead of renting and maintaining full VMs, customers increasingly leverage container technologies, which come with a much more light
