New! Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR)
Tenable calculates a dynamic VPR for every vulnerability. VPR combines vulnerability information with threat intelligence and machine learning algorithms to predict which vulnerabilities are most likely to be exploited in attacks. Read more about what VPR is and how it's different from CVSS.
VPR Score: 5.9
Synopsis
The remote host is missing a vendor-supplied security patch.
Description
The version of Citrix XenServer installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
- A flaw exists in the VGA emulator in QEMU that allows a local guest user to read host memory by setting the display to a high resolution. (CVE-2014-3615)
- A flaw exists in the set_pixel_format() function within ui/vnc.c in QEMU that allows a remote attacker, using a small bytes_per_pixel value, to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2014-7815)
- A heap-based buffer overflow flaw exists in the Cirrus VGA emulator that allows local guest users to execute arbitrary code via vectors related to blit regions.
(CVE-2014-8106)
Note that environments that contain only PV guests are not vulnerable to these issues.
Solution
Apply the relevant hotfix referenced in the vendor advisory.
