CVE-2011-1936

Publication date 7 January 2014

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Xen, when using x86 Intel processors and the VMX virtualization extension is enabled, does not properly handle cpuid instruction emulation when exiting the VM, which allows local guest users to cause a denial of service (guest crash) via unspecified vectors.
