Re: [Xen-users] are Xen 3.1.0 kernels CVE-2007-4573 vulnerable



Hi;

01 Eki 2007 Pts tarihinde, Steven Timm ÿÿunlarÿÿ yazmÿÿÿÿtÿÿ:
Does anyone know if the Xen 3.1.0 kernels as distributed in
the "open source" tarballs (x86_64 version) are vulnerable to the
recently-announced  vulnerability CVE-2007-4573?
IF so, is there any plan to release patched tarballs  anytime soon?

Yes it is. And current provided tarball also vulnerable against ~30 CVE+
(cause all these vulnerabilities are discovered after 2.6.18 which is Xen-3.x
based on) so i suggest using your distros provided one instead of upstream
one.

Cheers

You suggest "using your distro-provided one" but of course Red Hat
only provides Xen 3.0.3, not Xen 3.1 which I need to run 64-bit host
and 32-bit (or 64-bit) clients.

NO, TRY FEDORA 8 / RAWHIDE WITH LASTED XEN 3.1




Does anyone have a good recipe to merge xen 3.1.0 patches and
2.6.18-8.1.14 as distributed by RedHat and friends?  x86_64 version, I
mean.  I know there is one there for the i386 version on
the web site but there is not one for the x86_64 version.  What
are people doing who are running Xen 3.1 on redhat 5 and friends, but
need to stay current with the many kernel security patches?  Any help
is appreciated.
