CVE-2012-4411 [MEDIUM] CVE-2012-4411 xen: qemu: guest administrator can access qemu monitor console
CVE-2012-4411 xen: qemu: guest administrator can access qemu monitor console
A guest administrator who is granted access to the graphical console
of a Xen guest can access the qemu monitor. The monitor can be used
to access host resources.
A malicious guest administrator can access host resources (perhaps
belonging to other guests or the underlying system) and may be able to
escalate their privilege to that of the host.
