CVE-2013-2072 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-2072):
  Buffer overflow in the Python bindings for the xc_vcpu_setaffinity call in
  Xen 4.0.x, 4.1.x, and 4.2.x allows local administrators with permissions to
  configure VCPU affinity to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and
  xend toolstack crash) and possibly gain privileges via a crafted cpumap.
