Xen 4.1.x and 4.2.x - Denial of Service or Privilege Escalation via Deferred Page Cleanup

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

Xen 4.1.x and 4.2.x, when the XSA-45 patch is in place, does not properly maintain references on pages stored for deferred cleanup, which allows local PV guest kernels to cause a denial of service (premature page free and hypervisor crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
