xen is vulnerable to information disclosure. A security vulnerability was discovered in the QEMU block format auto-detection, when running fully-virtualized guests. Such fully-virtualized guests, with a raw formatted disk image, were able to write a header to that disk image describing another format. This could allow such guests to read arbitrary files in their hypervisor’s host.
