Descriptions

Xen 3.3.x through 4.5.x does not properly restrict access to PCI MSI mask bits, which allows local x86 HVM guest users to cause a denial of service (unexpected interrupt and host crash) via unspecified vectors.

Xen 3.3.x hasta 4.5.x no restringe correctamente el acceso a los bits de máscara PCI MSI, lo que permite a usuarios locales invitados de x86 HVM causar una denegación de servicio (interrupción no esperado y caída de anfitrión) a través de vectores no especificados.

Matt Tait discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the virtual PCNET driver. A malicious guest could use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code on the host as the user running the QEMU process. In the default installation, when QEMU is used with libvirt, attackers would be isolated by the libvirt AppArmor profile. Kurt Seifried discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled certain temporary files. A local attacker could use this issue to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
