CVE-2014-2599 xen: HVMOP_set_mem_access is not preemptible
Processing of the HVMOP_set_mem_access HVM control operations does not check the size of its input and can tie up a physical CPU for extended periods of time.
A malicious administrator of a domain privileged with regard to an HVM guest can cause Xen to become unresponsive leading to a Denial of Service.
