Note from the SUSE Security Team on the xen package

This issue likely only affects the XEN hypervisor itself, unless otherwise stated. The userland utilities in -tools and libraries in -libs are shipped together with the xen hypervisor as they are built from one source and do not contain hypervisor specific fixes.

SUSE Bugzilla entry: 334445 [RESOLVED / FIXED]

No SUSE Security Announcements cross referenced.
