** Description changed:

- Description needed
+ The ioapic_read_indirect function in virt/kvm/ioapic.c in the Linux
+ kernel through 3.8.4 does not properly handle a certain combination of
+ invalid IOAPIC_REG_SELECT and IOAPIC_REG_WINDOW operations, which allows
+ guest OS users to obtain sensitive information from host OS memory or
+ cause a denial of service (host OS OOPS) via a crafted application.
