This updates xen to version 4.5.5 to fix the following issues :

  - An unprivileged user in a guest could gain guest could     escalate privilege to that of the guest kernel, if it     had could invoke the instruction emulator. Only 64-bit     x86 HVM guest were affected. Linux guest have not been     vulnerable. (boo#1016340, CVE-2016-10013)

  - An unprivileged user in a 64 bit x86 guest could gain     information from the host, crash the host or gain     privilege of the host (boo#1009107, CVE-2016-9383)

  - An unprivileged guest process could (unintentionally or     maliciously) obtain or ocorrupt sensitive information of     other programs in the same guest. Only x86 HVM guests     have been affected. The attacker needs to be able to     trigger the Xen instruction emulator. (boo#1000106,     CVE-2016-7777)

  - A guest on x86 systems could read small parts of     hypervisor stack data (boo#1012651, CVE-2016-9932)

  - The epro100 emulated network device caused a memory leak     in the host when unplugged in the guest. A privileged     user in the guest could use this to cause a DoS on the     host or potentially crash the guest process on the host     (boo#1013668, CVE-2016-9101)

  - The ColdFire Fast Ethernet Controller was vulnerable to     an infinite loop that could be trigged by a privileged     user in the guest, leading to DoS (boo#1013657,     CVE-2016-9776)

  - A malicious guest administrator could escalate their     privilege to that of the host. Only affects x86 HVM     guests using qemu older version 1.6.0 or using the     qemu-xen-traditional. (boo#1011652, CVE-2016-9637)

  - An unprivileged guest user could escalate privilege to     that of the guest administrator on x86 HVM guests,     especially on Intel CPUs (boo#1009100, CVE-2016-9386)

  - An unprivileged guest user could escalate privilege to     that of the guest administrator (on AMD CPUs) or crash     the system (on Intel CPUs) on 32-bit x86 HVM guests.
    Only guest operating systems that allowed a new task to     start in VM86 mode were affected. (boo#1009103,     CVE-2016-9382)

  - A malicious guest administrator could crash the host on     x86 PV guests only (boo#1009104, CVE-2016-9385)

  - An unprivileged guest user was able to crash the guest.
    (boo#1009108, CVE-2016-9377, CVE-2016-9378)

  - A malicious guest administrator could get privilege of     the host emulator process on x86 HVM guests.
    (boo#1009109, CVE-2016-9381)

  - A vulnerability in pygrub allowed a malicious guest     administrator to obtain the contents of sensitive host     files, or even delete those files (boo#1009111,     CVE-2016-9379, CVE-2016-9380)

  - A privileged guest user could cause an infinite loop in     the RTL8139 ethernet emulation to consume CPU cycles on     the host, causing a DoS situation (boo#1007157,     CVE-2016-8910)

  - A privileged guest user could cause an infinite loop in     the intel-hda sound emulation to consume CPU cycles on     the host, causing a DoS situation (boo#1007160,     CVE-2016-8909)

  - A privileged guest user could cause a crash of the     emulator process on the host by exploiting a divide by     zero vulnerability of the JAZZ RC4030 chipset emulation     (boo#1005004 CVE-2016-8667)

  - A privileged guest user could cause a crash of the     emulator process on the host by exploiting a divide by     zero issue of the 16550A UART emulation (boo#1005005,     CVE-2016-8669)

  - A privileged guest user could cause a memory leak in the     USB EHCI emulation, causing a DoS situation on the host     (boo#1003870, CVE-2016-7995)

  - A privileged guest user could cause an infinite loop in     the USB xHCI emulation, causing a DoS situation on the     host (boo#1004016, CVE-2016-8576)

  - A privileged guest user could cause an infinite loop in     the ColdFire Fash Ethernet Controller emulation, causing     a DoS situation on the host (boo#1003030, CVE-2016-7908)

  - A privileged guest user could cause an infinite loop in     the AMD PC-Net II emulation, causing a DoS situation on     the host (boo#1003032, CVE-2016-7909)

  - Cause a reload of clvm in the block-dmmd script to avoid     a blocking lvchange call (boo#1002496)
