From ${URL} : Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the MegaRAID SAS 8708EM2 Host Bus Adapter emulation support is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds read access issue. It could occur while performing a MMIO write operation. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to read host memory leading to potentially crash the Qemu process on the host.
