CVE-2012-5514

Publication date 13 December 2012

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

The guest_physmap_mark_populate_on_demand function in Xen 4.2 and earlier does not properly unlock the subject GFNs when checking if they are in use, which allows local guest HVM administrators to cause a denial of service (hang) via unspecified vectors.
