Hi,

This [1] Xen blog post describes Xen 4.6 as the lowest version about which 
patches for Meltdown and Spectre. Debian 7 has Xen 4.1. Debian 8 has Xen 4.4. 
Will these and future patches be backported, if that is even possible?

Also, so far, I haven't found anything about how Debian is going to address 
this vulnerability in Xen. For instance, [2] only mentions kernels, not Xen.

Regards,

Wiebe
