The remote host is missing an update for the 'xorg-x11-drv-qxl' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. The xorg-x11-drv-qxl package provides an X11 video driver for the QEMU QXL video accelerator. This driver makes it possible to use Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 as a guest operating system under the KVM kernel module and the QEMU multi-platform emulator, using the SPICE protocol. A flaw was found in the way the host's qemu-kvm qxl driver and the guest's X.Org qxl driver interacted when a SPICE connection terminated

  A flaw was found in the way the host's qemu-kvm qxl driver and the guest's

  guest temporarily unavailable or, potentially (if the sysctl
  kernel.softlockup_panic variable was set to '1' in the guest), crash the
  guest. (CVE-2013-0241)

  All users of xorg-x11-drv-qxl are advised to upgrade to this updated
  package, which contains a backported patch to correct this issue. All
  running X.Org server instances using the qxl driver must be restarted for
