CVE-2013-1432

Publication date 28 August 2013

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Xen 4.1.x and 4.2.x, when the XSA-45 patch is in place, does not properly maintain references on pages stored for deferred cleanup, which allows local PV guest kernels to cause a denial of service (premature page free and hypervisor crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
