CVE-2017-2615 The Cirrus CLGD 54xx VGA Emulator in qemu-kvm is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds access issue. It could occur while copying VGA data via bitblt copy in backward mode. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process resulting in DoS OR potentially execute arbitrary code on the host with privileges of qemu-kvm process on the host. CVE-2017-2620 The Cirrus CLGD 54xx VGA Emulator in qemu-kvm is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds access issue. It could occur while copying VGA data in cirrus_bitblt_cputovideo. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process resulting in DoS OR potentially execute arbitrary code on the host with privileges of qemu-kvm process on the host. CVE-2017-5898 The CCID Card device emulator support is vulnerable to an integer overflow flaw. It could occur while passing message via command/responses packets to and from the host. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the qemu-kvm process on the host resulting in a DoS. This issue does not affect the qemu-kvm binaries in Debian but we apply the patch to the sources to stay in sync with the qemu package.
