SUSE-SU-2016:2628-1

kvm was updated to fix 16 security issues.

These security issues were fixed: - CVE-2015-6815: e1000 NIC emulation support was vulnerable to an infinite loop issue. A privileged user inside guest could have used this flaw to crash the Qemu instance resulting in DoS. (bsc#944697). - CVE-2016-2391: The ohcibusstart function in the USB OHCI emulation support (hw/usb/hcd-ohci.c) in QEMU allowed local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and QEMU process crash) via vectors related to multiple eoftimers (bsc#967013). - CVE-2016-2392: The isrndis function in the USB Net device emulator (hw/usb/dev-network.c) in QEMU did not properly validate USB configuration descriptor objects, which allowed local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and QEMU process crash) via vectors involving a remote NDIS control message packet (bsc#967012). - CVE-2016-4453: The vmsvgafiforun function in hw/display/vmwarevga.c in QEMU allowed local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and QEMU process crash) via a VGA command (bsc#982223). - CVE-2016-4454: The vmsvgafiforeadraw function in hw/display/vmwarevga.c in QEMU allowed local guest OS administrators to obtain sensitive host memory information or cause a denial of service (QEMU process crash) by changing FIFO registers and issuing a VGA command, which triggers an out-of-bounds read (bsc#982222). - CVE-2016-5105: The megasasdcmdcfgread function in hw/scsi/megasas.c in QEMU, when built with MegaRAID SAS 8708EM2 Host Bus Adapter emulation support, used an uninitialized variable, which allowed local guest administrators to read host memory via vectors involving a MegaRAID Firmware Interface (MFI) command (bsc#982017). - CVE-2016-5106: The megasasdcmdsetproperties function in hw/scsi/megasas.c in QEMU, when built with MegaRAID SAS 8708EM2 Host Bus Adapter emulation support, allowed local guest administrators to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write access) via vectors involving a MegaRAID Firmware Interface (MFI) command (bsc#982018). - CVE-2016-5107: The megasaslookupframe function in QEMU, when built with MegaRAID SAS 8708EM2 Host Bus Adapter emulation support, allowed local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and crash) via unspecified vectors (bsc#982019). - CVE-2016-5126: Heap-based buffer overflow in the iscsiaioioctl function in block/iscsi.c in QEMU allowed local guest OS users to cause a denial of service (QEMU process crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted iSCSI asynchronous I/O ioctl call (bsc#982285). - CVE-2016-5238: The getcmd function in hw/scsi/esp.c in QEMU allowed local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and QEMU process crash) via vectors related to reading from the information transfer buffer in non-DMA mode (bsc#982959). - CVE-2016-5337: The megasasctrlgetinfo function in hw/scsi/megasas.c in QEMU allowed local guest OS administrators to obtain sensitive host memory information via vectors related to reading device control information (bsc#983961). - CVE-2016-5338: The (1) espregread and (2) espregwrite functions in hw/scsi/esp.c in QEMU allowed local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (QEMU process crash) or execute arbitrary code on the QEMU host via vectors related to the information transfer buffer (bsc#983982). - CVE-2016-5403: The virtqueuepop function in hw/virtio/virtio.c in QEMU allowed local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and QEMU process crash) by submitting requests without waiting for completion (bsc#991080). - CVE-2016-6490: Infinite loop in the virtio framework. A privileged user inside the guest could have used this flaw to crash the Qemu instance on the host resulting in DoS (bsc#991466). - CVE-2016-7116: Host directory sharing via Plan 9 File System(9pfs) was vulnerable to a directory/path traversal issue. A privileged user inside guest could have used this flaw to access undue files on the host (bsc#996441). - CVE-2014-7815: The setpixelformat function in ui/vnc.c in QEMU allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a small bytesperpixel value (bsc#902737).
