Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.1.2.2016.699
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-699-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'xen' package(s) announced via the DLA-699-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'xen' package(s) announced via the DLA-699-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Xen does not properly honor CR0.TS and CR0.EM, which allows local x86 HVM guest OS users to read or modify FPU, MMX, or XMM register state information belonging to arbitrary tasks on the guest by modifying an instruction while the hypervisor is preparing to emulate it.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 4.1.6.lts1-3.

We recommend that you upgrade your xen packages.
