The acceleration support for the "REP MOVS" instruction in Xen 4.4.x, 3.2.x, and earlier lacks properly bounds checking for memory mapped I/O (MMIO) emulated in the hypervisor, which allows local HVM guests to cause a denial of service (host crash) via unspecified vectors.
An insufficient bound checking flaw was found in the Xen hypervisor's implementation of acceleration support for the "REP MOVS" instructions. A privileged HVM guest user could potentially use this flaw to crash the host.
Отчет
This issue does affect the versions of the kernel-xen package as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Future kernel-xen updates for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 may address this issue.
