NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xen package and not the xen package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

The HYPERVISOR_xen_version hypercall in Xen 3.2.x through 4.5.x does not properly initialize data structures, which allows local guest users to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
