This release also contains changes to qemu-upstream, whose changelogs we do not list here as it contains many changes that are not directly releated to the Xen Project Hypervisor and thus this release. However, you can check https://xenbits.xenproject.org/gitweb/?p=qemu-xen.git;a=shortlog (between tags qemu-xen-4.7.2 and qemu-xen-4.7.3).
This release, which includes source code for qemu-traditional and qemu-upstream, contains the following security fixes.

See https://xenbits.xenproject.org/xsa/ for details related to Xen Project security advisories.
We recommend all users of the 4.7 stable series to update to this latest point release.
