From ${URL} : Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the VMware-SVGA "chipset" emulation support is vulnerable to an OOB stack memory write issue. It could occur while processing VGA commands in 'vmsvga_fifo_run' routine. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process resulting in DoS. Upstream fix: ------------- -> https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-09/msg01764.html @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.
