Xenstore: Guests can cause Xenstore to not free temporary memory (XSA-416)

Xenstore: Guests can cause Xenstore to not free temporary memory When working on a request of a guest, xenstored might need to allocate quite large amounts of memory temporarily. This memory is freed only after the request has been finished completely. A request is regarded to be finished only after the guest has read the response message of the request from the ring page. Thus a guest not reading the response can cause xenstored to not free the temporary memory.
This can result in memory shortages causing Denial of Service (DoS) of xenstored.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
