xen was updated to fix eight security issues. These security issues were fixed : - CVE-2015-4037: The slirpsmb function in net/slirp.c created temporary files with predictable names, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service instantiation failure by creating /tmp/qemu-smb.- files...

FreeBSD : xen-kernel -- some pmu and profiling hypercalls log without rate limiting (e4848ca4-8820-11e5-ab94-002590263bf5)

The Xen Project reports : HYPERCALLxenoprofop and HYPERVISORxenpmuop log some errors and attempts at invalid operations. These log messages are not rate-limited, even though they can be triggered by guests. A malicious guest could cause repeated logging to the hypervisor console, leading to a...
