Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2013-09-01 00:37:46 UTC
CVE-2013-1432 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-1432):
  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 possible gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
