  - An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.12.x allowing x86 guest OS users to cause a denial of service
    (infinite loop) because certain bit iteration is mishandled. In a number of places bitmaps are being used
    by the hypervisor to track certain state. Iteration over all bits involves functions which may misbehave
    in certain corner cases: On x86 accesses to bitmaps with a compile time known size of 64 may incur
    undefined behavior, which may in particular result in infinite loops. A malicious guest may cause a
    hypervisor crash or hang, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). All versions of Xen are vulnerable. x86
    systems with 64 or more nodes are vulnerable (there might not be any such systems that Xen would run on).
    x86 systems with less than 64 nodes are not vulnerable. (CVE-2019-19582)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
