CVE-2013-2194 CVE-2013-2195 CVE-2013-2196 xen: Multiple vulnerabilities in libelf PV kernel handling
The ELF parser used by the Xen tools to read domains' kernels and
construct domains has multiple integer overflows, pointer dereferences
based on calculations from unchecked input values, and other problems.
A malicious PV domain administrator who can specify their own kernel
can escalate their privilege to that of the domain construction tools
(i.e., normally, to control of the host).
