Additionally memory leaks were also possible (bsc#1126140). - Fixed a race condition issue which could allow malicious PV guests to escalate their privilege to that of the hypervisor (bsc#1126141). - Fixed an issue which could allow a malicious unprivileged guest userspace process to escalate its privilege to that of other userspace processes in the same guest and potentially thereby to that of the guest operating system (bsc#1126201). - CVE-2019-9824: Fixed an information leak in SLiRP networking implementation which could allow a user/process to read uninitialised stack memory contents (bsc#1129623). - CVE-2018-19961 CVE-2018-19962: Fixed insufficient TLB flushing / improper large page mappings with AMD IOMMUs (XSA-275)(bsc#1115040). - CVE-2018-19965: Fixed denial of service issue from attempting to use INVPCID with a non-canonical addresses (XSA-279)(bsc#1115045). - CVE-2018-19966: Fixed issue introduced by XSA-240 that could have caused conflicts with shadow paging (XSA-280)(bsc#1115047). - Fixed an issue which could allow malicious PV guests may cause a host crash or gain access to data pertaining to other guests.Additionally, vulnerable configurations are likely to be unstable even in the absence of an attack (bsc#1126198). - Fixed multiple access violations introduced by XENMEM_exchange hypercall which could allow a single PV guest to leak arbitrary amounts of memory, leading to a denial of service (bsc#1126192). - Fixed an issue which could allow malicious 64bit PV guests to cause a host crash (bsc#1127400). - Fixed an issue which could allow malicious or buggy x86 PV guest kernels to mount a Denial of Service attack affecting the whole system (bsc#1126197). - Fixed an issue which could allow an untrusted PV domain with access to a physical device to DMA into its own pagetables leading to privilege escalation (bsc#1126195). - Fixed an issue which could allow a malicious or buggy x86 PV guest kernels can mount a Denial of Service attack affecting the whole system (bsc#1126196). Other issues addressed: - Upstream bug fixes (bsc#1027519) - Fixed an issue where live migrations were failing when spectre was enabled on xen boot cmdline (bsc#1116380). - Fixed an issue where setup of grant_tables and other variables may fail (bsc#1126325). - Fixed a building issue (bsc#1119161). - Fixed an issue where xpti=no-dom0 was not working as expected (bsc#1105528). - Packages should no longer use /var/adm/fillup-templates (bsc#1069468). - Added Xen cmdline option "suse_vtsc_tolerance" to avoid TSC emulation for HVM domUs (bsc#1026236).
