Thanks for uploading! I've put out the DSA and marked XSA-166 as fixed
in the tracker (since it has no CVE assigned). The tracker lists these

CVE-2016-5403	virtio: unbounded memory allocation on host via guest leading to DoS
CVE-2016-5242	The p2m_teardown function in arch/arm/p2m.c in Xen 4.4.x through 4.6.x ...
CVE-2016-4963	The libxl device-handling in Xen through 4.6.x allows local guest OS ...
CVE-2016-4962   The libxl device-handling in Xen 4.6.x and earlier allows local OS ...

as affecting Wheezy. I've marked CVE-2016-5242 as not-affected since we
don't have ARM xen in wheezy. What about the other ones?

Cheers,
