CVE-2014-7188

Published: 2 October 2014

The hvm_msr_read_intercept function in arch/x86/hvm/hvm.c in Xen 4.1 through 4.4.x uses an improper MSR range for x2APIC emulation, which allows local HVM guests to cause a denial of service (host crash) or read data from the hypervisor or other guests via unspecified vectors.
