NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xen-tools-xendomains-wait-disk package and not the xen-tools-xendomains-wait-disk package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.3 relevant fixed versions and status.

Xenstore: Guests can crash xenstored via exhausting the stack Xenstored is using recursion for some Xenstore operations (e.g. for deleting a sub-tree of Xenstore nodes). With sufficiently deep nesting levels this can result in stack exhaustion on xenstored, leading to a crash of xenstored.
