There is a new xen kernel for centos-6 and centos-7 the needs testing in:
http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt6-xen-common-testing/x86_64/os/Packages/
and
http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-xen-common-testing/x86_64/os/Packages/
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
I presume this addresses CVE-2016-0728?

Actually it does not .. they have not rolled that patch into the LTS 3.18 branch at kernel.org yet.
As soon as it hits the LTS tree I will build a new kernel though.
OK .. supposedly, this patch fixes the issue:
I have made this patch apply to the xen kernel sources:
Let's verify that what I am applying is the only real meat to the first patch.
I will build and test this locally to verify that we have the issue before and not after applying that patch.
Then we can test it as a group.
SO .. hold off on testing kernel-3.18.25-17 and I will create a kernel-3.18.25-18 if this fixes the CVE-2016-0728 issue.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
Ok thanks. I will test it on several development machines once it is ready.

Just a minor question about workflow. I had understood that CentOS wanted the CBS itself to only be used for SIG dev testing; and that for wider testing they wanted to use buildlogs. And so ideally after making sure the basics were in place, you would have tagged it with -testing, and then sent out an announcement asking people to test it by doing "yum --enablerepo=centos-virt-xen-testing update kernel". Was that the idea, or did I miss something?

That workflow works George .. I didn't know if the stuff would end up on buildlogs or not (if that was automatic) .. but it is. So from now on, I will do it that way :)
