While not obivous, kvm_vcpu_reset() leaves the nested mode by clearing 'vcpu->arch.hflags' but it does so without all the required housekeeping. On SVM, it is possible to have a vCPU reset while in guest mode because unlike VMX, on SVM, INIT's are not latched in SVM non root mode and in addition to that L1 doesn't have to intercept triple fault, which should also trigger L1's reset if happens in L2 while L1 didn't intercept it. If one of the above conditions happen, KVM will continue to use vmcb02 while not having in the guest mode. Later the IA32_EFER will be cleared which will lead to freeing of the nested guest state which will (correctly) free the vmcb02, but since KVM still uses it (incorrectly) this will lead to a use after free and kernel crash.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
