Title:CVE-2013-0228 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (trusty) - medium.
Description:The xen_iret function in arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S in the Linux kernel before 3.7.9 on 32-bit Xen paravirt_ops platforms does not properly handle an invalid value in the DS segment register, which allows guest OS users to gain guest OS privileges via a crafted application. Andrew Jones discovered a flaw with the xen_iret function in Linux kernel's Xen virtualizeation. In the 32-bit Xen paravirt platform an unprivileged guest OS user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (crash the system) or gain guest OS privilege.
