According to its self-reported version number, the Xen hypervisor installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities including denial of service, information disclosure, and privilege escalation due to a steal_page race condition. Only x86 systems are affected.

Note that Nessus has checked the changeset versions based on the xen.git change log. Nessus did not check guest hardware configurations or if patches were applied manually to the source code before a recompile and reinstall.
