CVE-2013-2140 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-2140):
  The dispatch_discard_io function in drivers/block/xen-blkback/blkback.c in
  the Xen blkback implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.10.5 allows
  guest OS users to cause a denial of service (data loss) via filesystem write
  operations on a read-only disk that supports the (1) BLKIF_OP_DISCARD (aka
  discard or TRIM) or (2) SCSI UNMAP feature.
