Synopsis:          Important: xen security update
Issue Date:        2013-03-06
CVE Numbers:       CVE-2012-6075
--

A flaw was found in the way QEMU emulated the e1000 network interface card
when the host was configured to accept jumbo network frames, and a fully-
virtualized guest using the e1000 emulated driver was not. A remote
attacker could use this flaw to crash the guest or, potentially, execute
arbitrary code with root privileges in the guest. (CVE-2012-6075)

After installing the updated packages, all running fully-virtualized
guests must be restarted for this update to take effect.
