Description
Multiple integer overflows in the (1) tmh_copy_from_client and (2) tmh_copy_to_client functions 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 (memory corruption and host crash) via unspecified vectors. NOTE: this issue was originally published as part of CVE-2012-3497, which was too general; CVE-2012-3497 has been SPLIT into this ID and others.
