Descriptions
In QEMU through 5.0.0, an integer overflow was found in the SM501 display driver implementation. This flaw occurs in the COPY_AREA macro while handling MMIO write operations through the sm501_2d_engine_write() callback. A local attacker could abuse this flaw to crash the QEMU process in sm501_2d_operation() in hw/display/sm501.c on the host, resulting in a denial of service.
En QEMU versiones hasta 5.0.0, se encontró un desbordamiento de enteros en la implementación del controlador de pantalla SM501. Este fallo ocurre en la macro COPY_AREA al manejar operaciones de escritura MMIO por medio de la devolución de llamada de sm501_2d_engine_write(). Un atacante local podría abusar de este fallo para bloquear el proceso QEMU en la función sm501_2d_operation() en el archivo hw/display/sm501.c en el host, resultando en una denegación de servicio
Ziming Zhang and VictorV discovered that the QEMU SLiRP networking implementation incorrectly handled replying to certain ICMP echo requests. An attacker inside a guest could possibly use this issue to leak host memory to obtain sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Eric Blake and Xueqiang Wei discovered that the QEMU NDB implementation incorrectly handled certain requests. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Various other issues were also addressed.
