Descriptions

Xen 3.0.3 through 4.1.x (possibly 4.1.6.1), 4.2.x (possibly 4.2.3), and 4.3.x (possibly 4.3.1) does not properly prevent access to hypercalls, which allows local guest users to gain privileges via a crafted application running in ring 1 or 2.

Xen 3.0.3 a 4.1.x (posiblemente 4.1.6.1), 4.2.x (posiblemente 4.2.3), y 4.3.x (posiblemente 4.3.1) no previene correctamente acceso a hypercalls, lo cual permite a usuarios invitados locales obtener privilegios a través de la ejecución de una aplicación manipulada en el anillo 1 o el anillo 2.
