From ${URL} : Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the Virtio GPU Device emulator support is vulnerable to an out of bounds memory access issue. It could occur while processing 'VIRTIO_GPU_CMD_GET_CAPSET' command. A guest user/process could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process instance on a host, resulting in DoS.
