Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in qemu-kvm :

CVE-2016-8576

qemu-kvm built with the USB xHCI controller emulation support is vulnerable to an infinite loop issue. It could occur while processing USB command ring in ‘xhci_ring_fetch’.

CVE-2016-8577

qemu-kvm built with the virtio-9p back-end support is vulnerable to a memory leakage issue. It could occur while doing a I/O read operation in v9fs_read() routine.

CVE-2016-8578

qemu-kvm built with the virtio-9p back-end support is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference issue. It could occur while doing an I/O vector unmarshalling operation in v9fs_iov_vunmarshal() routine.

CVE-2016-8669

qemu-kvm built with the 16550A UART emulation support is vulnerable to a divide by zero issue. It could occur while updating serial device parameters in ‘serial_update_parameters’.

For Debian 7 ‘Wheezy’, these problems have been fixed in version 1.1.2+dfsg-6+deb7u17.

We recommend that you upgrade your qemu-kvm packages.
