From ${URL} : Quick emulator(Qemu) built with the USB xHCI controller emulator support is vulnerable to an infinite loop issue. It could occur while processing control transfer descriptors' sequence in xhci_kick_epctx. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process resulting in DoS. Upstream patch: --------------- -> https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-02/msg01101.html Reference: ---------- -> http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2017/02/13/11 @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.
