Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2013-09-01 00:20:04 UTC
CVE-2013-2211 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-2211):
  The libxenlight (libxl) toolstack library in Xen 4.0.x, 4.1.x, and 4.2.x
  uses weak permissions for xenstore keys for paravirtualised and emulated
  serial console devices, which allows local guest administrators to modify
  the xenstore value via unspecified vectors.
