My plan is to fix this in 1.6.1 and stabilize that along with 1.5.4. Hola. qemu-1.6.1 has already been released. But i bet you guys are aware of that. CVE-2013-4377 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-4377): Use-after-free vulnerability in the virtio-pci implementation in Qemu 1.4.0 through 1.6.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by "hot-unplugging" a virtio device. this was merged starting with the 1.7.1 release This issue was resolved and addressed in GLSA 201408-17 at http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-201408-17.xml by GLSA coordinator Kristian Fiskerstrand (K_F). |
