Description Andrej Nemec 2017-05-05 08:20:54 EDT
Xen PV guest before Xen 4.3 checked access permissions to MMIO ranges
only after accessing them, allowing host PCI device space memory reads,
leading to information disclosure. This is an error in the get_user
function. NOTE: the upstream Xen Project considers versions before
4.5.x to be EOL.
