File CVE-2012-5512-xsa28.patch of Package xen.openSUSE_12.1_Update

References: CVE-2012-5512 XSA-28 bnc#789940

x86/HVM: range check xen_hvm_set_mem_access.hvmmem_access before use

Otherwise an out of bounds array access can happen if changing the
default access is being requested, which - if it doesn't crash Xen -
would subsequently allow reading arbitrary memory through
HVMOP_get_mem_access (again, unless that operation crashes Xen).

This is XSA-28 / CVE-2012-5512.
