Fedora 25: QEMU Update Addresses Critical Memory Leaks and Threats

* CVE-2016-6836: vmxnet: Information leakage in vmxnet3_complete_packet (bz #1366370) * CVE-2016-7909: pcnet: Infinite loop in pcnet_rdra_addr (bz #1381196) * CVE-2016-7994: virtio-gpu: memory leak in resource_create_2d (bz #1382667) * CVE-2016-8577: 9pfs: host memory leakage in v9fs_read (bz #1383286) * CVE-2016-8578: 9pfs: potential NULL dereferencein 9pfs routines (bz #1383292) *. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2017-b953d4d3a4 2017-01-20 14:15:21.263862 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : qemu Product : Fedora 25 Version : 2.7.1 Release : 2.fc25 URL : https://www.qemu.org/ Summary : QEMU is a FAST! processor emulator Description : QEMU is a generic and open source processor emulator which achieves a good emulation speed by using dynamic translation. QEMU has two operating modes: * Full system emulation. In this mode, QEMU emulates a full system (for example a PC), including a processor and various peripherials. It can be used to launch different Operating Systems without rebooting the PC or to debug system code. * User mode emulation. In this mode, QEMU can launch Linux processes compiled for one CPU on another CPU. As QEMU requires no host kernel patches to run, it is safe and easy to use. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: * CVE-2016-6836: vmxnet: Information leakage in vmxnet3_complete_packet (bz #1366370) * CVE-2016-7909: pcnet: Infinite loop in pcnet_rdra_addr (bz #1381196) * CVE-2016-7994: virtio-gpu: memory leak in resource_create_2d (bz #1382667) * CVE-2016-8577: 9pfs: host memory leakage in v9fs_read (bz #1383286) * CVE-2016-8578: 9pfs: potential NULL dereferencein 9pfs routines (bz #1383292) * CVE-2016-8668: OOB buffer access in rocker switch emulation (bz #1384898) * CVE-2016-8669: divide by zero error in serial_update_parameters (bz #1384911)* CVE-2016-8909: intel-hda: infinite loop in dma buffer stream (bz #1388053) * Infinite loop vulnerability in a9_gtimer_update (bz #1388300) * CVE-2016-9101: eepro100: memory leakage at device unplug (bz #1389539) * CVE-2016-9103: 9pfs: information leakage via xattr (bz #1389643) * CVE-2016-9102: 9pfs: memory leakage when creating extended attribute (bz #1389551) * CVE-2016-9104: 9pfs: integer overflow leading to OOB access (bz #1389687) * CVE-2016-9105: 9pfs: memory leakage in v9fs_link (bz #1389704) * CVE-2016-9106: 9pfs: memory leakage in v9fs_write (bz #1389713) * CVE-2016-9381: xen: incautious about shared ring processing (bz #1397385) * CVE-2016-9921: Divide by zero vulnerability in cirrus_do_copy (bz #1399054) * CVE-2016-9776: infinite loop while receiving data in mcf_fec_receive (bz #1400830) * CVE-2016-9845: information leakage in virgl_cmd_get_capset_info (bz #1402247) * CVE-2016-9846: virtio-gpu: memory leakage while updating cursor data (bz #1402258) * CVE-2016-9907: usbredir: memory leakage when destroying redirector (bz #1402266) * CVE-2016-9911: usb: ehci: memory leakage in ehci_init_transfer (bz #1402273) * CVE-2016-9913: 9pfs: memory leakage via proxy/handle callbacks (bz #1402277) * CVE-2016-10028: virtio-gpu-3d: OOB access while reading virgl capabilities (bz #1406368) * CVE-2016-9908: virtio-gpu: information leakage in virgl_cmd_get_capset (bz #1402263) * CVE-2016-9912: virtio-gpu: memory leakage when destroying gpu resource (bz #1402285) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1366369 -
