It seems 4.19 stable backport is broken, upstream commit f7eea636c3d50 has:

And v4.19.74 has 6e60900cfa3e (541ab2aeb282 upstream):

This all results in memset(NULL). (also, 6e60900cfa3e should come *after* f7eea636c3d50 and not before but oh well..)
The following will likely fix the problem (untested):
diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c b/arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c index e83f4f6bfdac..d3a900a4fa0e 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c +++ b/arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c @@ -8801,7 +8801,7 @@ static int handle_vmread(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) /* _system ok, nested_vmx_check_permission has verified cpl=0 */ if (kvm_write_guest_virt_system(vcpu, gva, &field_value, (is_long_mode(vcpu) ? 8 : 4),

&e)) kvm_inject_page_fault(vcpu, &e); }I can send a patch to stable@ if needed.
A patch was already sent, and is included in the 4.19.79 and 4.14.149 kernel releases, and will be part of the next 4.9.y and 4.4.y kernel releases that happen later this week.
