"This update for xen fixes the following issues :

CVE-2018-12207: Untrusted virtual machines on Intel CPUs could exploit
a race condition in the Instruction Fetch Unit of the Intel CPU to
cause a Machine Exception during Page Size Change, causing the CPU
core to be non-functional. (bsc#1155945)

CVE-2019-11135: Aborting an asynchronous TSX operation on Intel CPUs
with Transactional Memory support could be used to facilitate
sidechannel information leaks out of microarchitectural buffers,
similar to the previously described 'Microarchitectural Data Sampling'
attack. (bsc#1152497).

CVE-2019-18425: 32-bit PV guest user mode could elevate its privileges
to that of the guest kernel. (bsc#1154456).

CVE-2019-18421: A malicious PV guest administrator may have been able
to escalate their privilege to that of the host. (bsc#1154458).

CVE-2019-18420: Malicious x86 PV guests may have caused a hypervisor
crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (Dos). (bsc#1154448)

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.");
