CVE ID : CVE-2018-11806 CVE-2018-12617 CVE-2018-16872 CVE-2018-17958
CVE-2018-18849 CVE-2018-18954 CVE-2018-19364 CVE-2018-19489

Multiple security issues were discovered in QEMU, a fast processor
emulator, which could result in denial of service, the execution of
arbitrary code or information disclosure.

In addition this update backports support to passthrough the new
md-clear CPU flag added in the intel-microcode update shipped in DSA 4447
to x86-based guests.

For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in
version 1:2.8+dfsg-6+deb9u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your qemu packages.
