Package : qemu
Version : 1:2.8+dfsg-6+deb9u11
CVE ID : CVE-2020-1711 CVE-2020-13253 CVE-2020-14364 CVE-2020-16092
Debian Bug : 968947 961297 949731

The following security issues have been found in qemu, which could
potentially result in DoS and execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2020-1711

An out-of-bounds heap buffer access flaw was found in the way the iSCSI
Block driver in QEMU handled a response coming from an iSCSI server
while checking the status of a Logical Address Block (LBA) in an
iscsi_co_block_status() routine. A remote user could use this flaw to
crash the QEMU process, resulting in a denial of service or potential
execution of arbitrary code with privileges of the QEMU process on the
host.

CVE-2020-13253

An out-of-bounds read access issue was found in the SD Memory Card
emulator of the QEMU. It occurs while performing block write commands
via sdhci_write(), if a guest user has sent 'address' which is OOB of
's->wp_groups'. A guest user/process may use this flaw to crash the
QEMU process resulting in DoS.

CVE-2020-14364

An out-of-bounds read/write access issue was found in the USB emulator
of the QEMU. It occurs while processing USB packets from a guest, when
'USBDevice->setup_len' exceeds the USBDevice->data_buf[4096], in
do_token_{in,out} routines.

CVE-2020-16092

An assertion failure can occur in the network packet processing. This
issue affects the e1000e and vmxnet3 network devices. A malicious guest
user/process could use this flaw to abort the QEMU process on the host,
resulting in a denial of service condition in
net_tx_pkt_add_raw_fragment in hw/net/net_tx_pkt.c

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version
1:2.8+dfsg-6+deb9u11.

We recommend that you upgrade your qemu packages.
