x86: check segment descriptor read result in 64-bit OUTS emulationstaging-4.1stable-4.1
When emulating such an operation from a 64-bit context (CS has long mode set), and the data segment is overridden to FS/GS, the result of reading the overridden segment's descriptor (read_descriptor) is not checked. If it fails, data_base is left uninitialized. This can lead to 8 bytes of Xen's stack being leaked to the guest (implicitly, i.e. via the address given in a #PF). Coverity-ID: 1055116 This is CVE-2013-4368 / XSA-67. Signed-off-by: Matthew Daley <mattjd@gmail.com> Fix formatting.
