Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2017-05-20 08:37:33 UTC 
From ${URL} :

Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the Virtio GPU Device emulator support is
vulnerable to a memory leakage issue. It could occur while processing
'VIRTIO_GPU_CMD_SET_SCANOUT:' command.

A guest user/process could use this flaw to leak host memory resulting in Dos.

The fix is in upstream commit

  dd248ed7e204ee8a1873914e02b8b526e8f1b80d

which was already applied to the 2.9.0 release.


Security, please add to existing GLSA (bug #616874 and others).
