"Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Xen hypervisor.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
following problems :
CVE-2016-10013 (xsa-204)
Xen mishandles SYSCALL singlestep during emulation which can lead to
privilege escalation. The vulnerability is only exposed to 64-bit x86
HVM guests.
CVE-2016-10024 (xsa-202)
PV guests may be able to mask interrupts causing a Denial of Service.
For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
4.1.6.lts1-5.
We recommend that you upgrade your xen packages.
NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
