From 95f5e95f41dff31b2a4566c5a8975c08a49ae4e3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Garrett Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2019 17:17:49 -0700 Subject: x86/msr: Restrict MSR access when the kernel is locked down Writing to MSRs should not be allowed if the kernel is locked down, since it could lead to execution of arbitrary code in kernel mode. Based on a patch by Kees Cook.
