Security update for xen

This update for xen fixes the following issues: Security vulnerabilities fixed: - CVE-2018-19961, CVE-2018-19962: Fixed an issue related to insufficient TLB flushing with AMD IOMMUs, which potentially allowed a guest to escalate its privileges, may cause a Denial of Service (DoS) affecting the entire host, or may be able to access data it is not supposed to access. (XSA-275) (bsc#1115040) - CVE-2018-19965: Fixed an issue related to the INVPCID instruction in case non-canonical addresses are accessed, which may allow a guest to cause Xen to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) affecting the entire host. (XSA-279) (bsc#1115045) - CVE-2018-19966: Fixed an issue related to a previous fix for XSA-240, which conflicted with shadow paging and allowed a guest to cause Xen to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) (XSA-280) (bsc#1115047) - CVE-2018-19967: Fixed HLE constructs that allowed guests to lock up the host, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). (XSA-282) (bsc#1114988) - CVE-2018-19665: Fixed an integer overflow resulting in memory corruption in various Bluetooth functions, allowing this to crash qemu process resulting in Denial of Service (DoS). (bsc#1117756). - CVE-2018-18849: Fixed an out of bounds memory access in the LSI53C895A SCSI host bus adapter emulation, which allowed a user and/or process to crash the qemu process resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). (bsc#1114423) - Fixed an integer overflow in ccid_card_vscard_read(), which allowed for memory corruption. (bsc#1112188) - CVE-2017-13672: Fixed an out of bounds read access during display update (bsc#1056336) - CVE-2018-17958: Fixed an integer overflow leading to a buffer overflow in the rtl8139 component (bsc#1111007) - CVE-2018-17962: Fixed an integer overflow leading to a buffer overflow in the pcnet component (bsc#1111011) - CVE-2018-17963: Fixed an integer overflow in relation to large packet sizes, leading to a denial of service (DoS). (bsc#1111014) - CVE-2018-10839: Fixed an integer overflow leading to a buffer overflow in the ne2000 component (bsc#1110924) Other bugs fixed: - Fixed an issue related to a domU hang on SLE12-SP3 HV (bsc#1108940) - Upstream bug fixes (bsc#1027519) - Fixed crashing VMs when migrating between dom0 hosts (bsc#1031382) - Fixed an issue with xpti=no-dom0 not working as expected (bsc#1105528)
