Subject: CVE-2017-14167 Qemu: i386: multiboot OOB access while loading guest
 kernel image

   Hello,

Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the PC System Emulator with multiboot feature 
support is vulnerable to an OOB r/w memory access issue. It could occur due to 
an integer overflow while loading a kernel image during a guest boot.

A user/process could use this flaw to potentially achieve arbitrary code 
execution on a host.
