According to its self-reported version number, the Xen hypervisor installed on the remote host is affected by a denial of service vulnerability due to a memory leak in XS_RESET_WATCHES. A guest can cause unbounded memory usage in oxenstored to cause the system to stop responding with a system-wide DoS.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
