CVE-2015-2756
Published: 1 April 2015
QEMU, as used in Xen 3.3.x through 4.5.x, does not properly restrict access to PCI command registers, which might allow local HVM guest users to cause a denial of service (non-maskable interrupt and host crash) by disabling the (1) memory or (2) I/O decoding for a PCI Express device and then accessing the device, which triggers an Unsupported Request (UR) response.

smb | This is a qemu change which is part of the xen package for the "traditional" qemu. Trusty and newer only provide qemu traditional as a backup but by default use the generic qemu from the archive and Vivid completely drops qemu traditional. So the non-qemut patches in that XSA need to go into qemu. |
