- bsc#1068191: Missing p2m error checking in PoD code allowed unprivileged guests
 to retain a writable mapping of freed memory leading to information leaks,
 privilege escalation or DoS (XSA-247).
- CVE-2017-15289: The mode4and5 write functions allowed local OS guest privileged
 users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write access and Qemu process
 crash) via vectors related to dst calculation (bsc#1063123)
- CVE-2017-15597: A grant copy operation being done on a grant of a dying domain
 allowed a malicious guest administrator to corrupt hypervisor memory, allowing
 for DoS or potentially privilege escalation and information leaks (bsc#1061075).
- CVE-2017-15595: x86 PV guest OS users were able to cause a DoS (unbounded
 recursion, stack consumption, and hypervisor crash) or possibly gain privileges
 via crafted page-table stacking (bsc#1061081).
- CVE-2017-15592: x86 HVM guest OS users were able to cause a DoS (hypervisor
 crash) or possibly gain privileges because self-linear shadow mappings were
 mishandled for translated guests (bsc#1061086).");
