From ${URL} : An information leakage flaw was found in Qemu's VGA emulator. It could lead to leaking host memory bytes to a VNC client. It could occur when a guest GOP driver attempts to set a high display resolution. A privileged user/program able to set such high resolution could use this flaw to leak host memory bytes.
