Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2016-01-20 15:42:23 UTC 
From ${URL} :

Qemu emulator built with the USB EHCI emulation support is vulnerable to an information leakage 
flaw. It could occur while processing isochronous transfer descriptors(iTD), with buffer page 
select(PG) index that falls beyond buffer page array area.

A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to leak qemu memory bytes.

Upstream patch:

@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.
