Summary

The package libslirp before version 4.6.0-1 is vulnerable to
information disclosure.

Resolution

Upgrade to 4.6.0-1.

pacman -Syu “libslirp>=4.6.0-1”

The problems have been fixed upstream in version 4.6.0.

Workaround

None.

Description

• CVE-2021-3592 (information disclosure)

An invalid pointer initialization issue was found in the SLiRP
networking implementation of QEMU before version 4.6.0. The flaw exists
in the bootp_input() function and could occur while processing a UDP
packet that is smaller than the size of the ‘bootp_t’ structure. A
malicious guest could use this flaw to leak 10 bytes of uninitialized
heap memory from the host.

• CVE-2021-3593 (information disclosure)

An invalid pointer initialization issue was found in the SLiRP
networking implementation of QEMU before version 4.6.0. The flaw exists
in the udp6_input() function and could occur while processing a UDP
packet that is smaller than the size of the ‘udphdr’ structure. This
issue may lead to out-of-bounds read access or indirect host memory
disclosure to the guest.

• CVE-2021-3594 (information disclosure)

An invalid pointer initialization issue was found in the SLiRP
networking implementation of QEMU before version 4.6.0. The flaw exists
in the udp_input() function and could occur while processing a UDP
packet that is smaller than the size of the ‘udphdr’ structure. This
issue may lead to out-of-bounds read access or indirect host memory
disclosure to the guest.

• CVE-2021-3595 (information disclosure)

An invalid pointer initialization issue was found in the SLiRP
networking implementation of QEMU before version 4.6.0. The flaw exists
in the tftp_input() function and could occur while processing a UDP
packet that is smaller than the size of the ‘tftp_t’ structure. This
issue may lead to out-of-bounds read access or indirect host memory
disclosure to the guest.

Impact

A malicious guest could disclose contents of the host’s memory using
crafted UDP packets.
