Descriptions

QEMU, through version 2.10 and through version 3.1.0, is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds read of up to 128 bytes in the hw/i2c/i2c-ddc.c:i2c_ddc() function. A local attacker with permission to execute i2c commands could exploit this to read stack memory of the qemu process on the host.

QEMU, hasta la versión 2.10 y la 3.1.0, es vulnerable a una lectura fuera de límites de hasta 128 bytes en la función hw/i2c/i2c-ddc.c:i2c_ddc(). Un atacante local con permisos para ejecutar comandos i2c podría aprovechar este hecho para leer la memoria de pila del proceso qemu en el host.

Michael Hanselmann discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the Media Transfer Protocol. An attacker inside the guest could use this issue to read or write arbitrary files and cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.10.
