Description
A vulnerability has been reported in Qemu, which can be exploited by malicious, local users in a 
guest virtual machine to disclose certain sensitive information.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the qemu-nbd tool, which does not properly check 
the format specification when parsing a disk image and can be exploited to read arbitrary files 
from the host.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 1.4.1.

Update to version 1.4.1.

Provided and/or discovered by
Daniel Berrange, Red Hat in a GIT commit.
