Looking through the list of patches backported in XenServer,

Ian:

Can I strongly recommend 704302ce9404c73cfb687d31adcf67094ab5bb53
"oxenstored: Protect oxenstored from malicious domains." for backport to
all trees.

Jan:

Can I suggest possibly:

__HYPERVISOR_iret rather more when writing hypercall pages"

Haswell CPU models"

As a group - more detail in the console ring in the case of a crash:
