CVE-2014-3967  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:13 xen to version 4.4.1-1 or higher.

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:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

The HVMOP_inject_msi function in Xen 4.2.x, 4.3.x, and 4.4.x does not properly check the return value from the IRQ setup check, which allows local HVM guest administrators to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via unspecified vectors.
