"Updated kvm packages that fix one security issue are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System
(CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is
available from the CVE link in the References section.

KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution
for Linux on AMD64 and Intel 64 systems. KVM is a Linux kernel module
built for the standard Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel.

A flaw was found in the way QEMU-KVM emulated the e1000 network
interface card when the host was configured to accept jumbo network
frames, and a guest using the e1000 emulated driver was not. A remote
attacker could use this flaw to crash the guest or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code with root privileges in the guest.
(CVE-2012-6075)

All users of kvm are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which contain backported patches to correct this issue. Note that the
procedure in the Solution section must be performed before this update
will take effect."
