This update for xen fixes several issues. These security issues were fixed :

  • CVE-2016-7092: The get_page_from_l3e function in arch/x86/mm.c in Xen allowed local 32-bit PV guest OS administrators to gain host OS privileges via vectors related to L3 recursive pagetables (bsc#995785).

  • CVE-2016-7093: Xen allowed local HVM guest OS administrators to overwrite hypervisor memory and consequently gain host OS privileges by leveraging mishandling of instruction pointer truncation during emulation (bsc#995789).

  • CVE-2016-7094: Buffer overflow in Xen allowed local x86 HVM guest OS administrators on guests running with shadow paging to cause a denial of service via a pagetable update (bsc#995792).

  • CVE-2016-6836: Information leakage in vmxnet3_complete_packet (bsc#994761).

  • CVE-2016-6888: Integer overflow in packet initialisation in VMXNET3 device driver. Aprivileged user inside guest c… (bsc#994772).

  • CVE-2016-6833: Use after free while writing (bsc#994775).

  • CVE-2016-6835: Buffer overflow in vmxnet_tx_pkt_parse_headers() in vmxnet3 deviceemulation. (bsc#994625).

  • CVE-2016-6834: An infinite loop during packet fragmentation (bsc#994421).

  • CVE-2016-6258: The PV pagetable code in arch/x86/mm.c in Xen allowed local 32-bit PV guest OS administrators to gain host OS privileges by leveraging fast-paths for updating pagetable entries (bsc#988675).

  • CVE-2016-6259: Xen did not implement Supervisor Mode Access Prevention (SMAP) whitelisting in 32-bit exception and event delivery, which allowed local 32-bit PV guest OS kernels to cause a denial of service (hypervisor and VM crash) by triggering a safety check (bsc#988676).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
