Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id Description
69469 Xen Backend Drivers Kernel Thread Reference Leak DoS

Xen contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered due to the backend drivers leaking references to kernel threads, which when exploited by a malicious guest can prevent a proper virtual shutdown, prevent 'xm' commands from functioning properly, and may result in loss of availability for the service.
