Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in QEMU:

  • CVE-2016-7161
    Heap-based buffer overflow in the .receive callback of xlnx.xps-ethernetlite
    in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on
    the QEMU host via a large ethlite packet.
  • CVE-2016-7170
    The vmsvga_fifo_run function in hw/display/vmware_vga.c in QEMU (aka Quick
    Emulator) is vulnerable to an OOB memory access.
  • CVE-2016-7908
    The mcf_fec_do_tx function in hw/net/mcf_fec.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator)
    does not properly limit the buffer descriptor count when transmitting
    packets, which allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of
    service (infinite loop and QEMU process crash) via vectors involving a
    buffer descriptor with a length of 0 and crafted values in bd.flags.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version
1.1.2+dfsg-6+deb7u16.

We recommend that you upgrade your qemu packages.
