  - A NULL pointer dereference in the updating of the reference TSC area. (CVE-2025-27466)

  - A NULL pointer dereference by assuming the SIM page is mapped when a synthetic timer message has to be delivered. 
    (CVE-2025-58142)

  - A race in the mapping of the reference TSC page, where a guest can get Xen to free a page while still present in the
    guest physical to machine (p2m) page tables. (CVE-2025-58143)

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