Description
From CVE.org
(1) TMEMC_SAVE_GET_CLIENT_WEIGHT, (2) TMEMC_SAVE_GET_CLIENT_CAP, (3) TMEMC_SAVE_GET_CLIENT_FLAGS and (4) TMEMC_SAVE_END in the Transcendent Memory (TMEM) in Xen 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2 allow local guest OS users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference or memory corruption and host crash) or possibly have other unspecified impacts via a NULL client id.
Statement
Not vulnerable.
This issue did not affect the versions of the kernel-xen package as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 because we did not support TMEM (Transcendent Memory).
This issue did not affect Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise MRG as we did not have support for Xen hypervisor.
