CVE-2009-1758 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-1758): The hypervisor_callback function in Xen, possibly before 3.4.0, as applied to the Linux kernel 2.6.30-rc4, 2.6.18, and probably other versions allows guest user applications to cause a denial of service (kernel oops) of the guest OS by triggering a segmentation fault in "certain address ranges."
I'm not sure about the category, xen herd, please correct me if needed...
Whiteboard taken from CVE description. ([xen >=2.6] does not make sense)
3.4.1 is in tree
looks like xen-sources is the affected piece of software, not the xen hypervisor (from app-emulation/xen)?!
Which kernel version is affected ?
Xen 4.1 in tree. Please test with it and reopen if it doesnt work
Only security closes security bugs. Thanks.
And security is closing the bug now.
