2016-05-23 CVE-2016-4037 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
The ehci_advance_state function in hw/usb/hcd-ehci.c in QEMU allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) via a circular split isochronous transfer descriptor (siTD) list, a related issue to CVE-2015-8558.

2016-05-20 CVE-2016-4441 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The get_cmd function in hw/scsi/esp.c in the 53C9X Fast SCSI Controller (FSC) support in QEMU does not properly check DMA length, which allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and QEMU process crash) via unspecified vectors, involving an SCSI command.
