By use of a specially crafted grub configuration file a domU user
may be able to execute arbitary code upon the dom0 when pygrub is
being used.

CVE-2007-1320

Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the Cirrus VGA extension,
provided by QEMU, may allow local users to execute arbitrary code
via "bitblt" heap overflow.


For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version
3.0.3-0-3.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your xen-utils package.
