This update for xen fixes several issues. These security issues were fixed: - blkif responses leaked backend stack data, which allowed unprivileged guest to obtain sensitive information from the host or other guests (XSA-216, bsc#1042863) - Page transfer might have allowed PV guest to elevate privilege (XSA-217, bsc#1042882) - Races in the grant table unmap code allowed for informations leaks and potentially privilege escalation (XSA-218, bsc#1042893) - Insufficient reference counts during shadow emulation allowed a malicious pair of guest to elevate their privileges to the privileges that XEN runs under (XSA-219, bsc#1042915) - Stale P2M mappings due to insufficient error checking allowed malicious guest to leak information or elevate privileges (XSA-222, bsc#1042931)
