Arches and Maintainer(s), Thank you for your work. Added to an existing GLSA Request. This issue was resolved and addressed in GLSA 201704-01 at https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/201704-01 by GLSA coordinator Kristian Fiskerstrand (K_F). |
From ${URL} : Quick emulator(Qemu) built with the SDHCI device emulation support is vulnerable to an infinite loop issue. It could occur while doing a multi block SDMA transfer via 'sdhci_sdma_transfer_multi_blocks' routine. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process resulting in DoS. Upstream patch: --------------- -> https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-02/msg02776.html Reference: ---------- -> http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2017/02/14/8 @maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.
