"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has qemu packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities:

  - A flaw was found in the USB redirector device emulation of QEMU in versions prior to 6.1.0-rc2. It occurs
    when dropping packets during a bulk transfer from a SPICE client due to the packet queue being full. A
    malicious SPICE client could use this flaw to make QEMU call free() with faked heap chunk metadata,
    resulting in a crash of QEMU or potential code execution with the privileges of the QEMU process on the
    host. (CVE-2021-3682)

  - In QEMU 1:4.1-1, 1:2.1+dfsg-12+deb8u6, 1:2.8+dfsg-6+deb9u8, 1:3.1+dfsg-8~deb10u1, 1:3.1+dfsg-8+deb10u2,
    and 1:2.1+dfsg-12+deb8u12 (fixed), when executing script in lsi_execute_script(), the LSI scsi adapter
    emulator advances 's->dsp' index to read next opcode. This can lead to an infinite loop if the next opcode
    is empty. Move the existing loop exit after 10k iterations so that it covers no-op opcodes as well.
    (CVE-2019-12068)

  - libslirp 4.0.0, as used in QEMU 4.1.0, has a use-after-free in ip_reass in ip_input.c. (CVE-2019-15890)

  - An out-of-bounds read/write access flaw was found in the USB emulator of the QEMU in versions before
    5.2.0. This issue occurs while processing USB packets from a guest when USBDevice 'setup_len' exceeds its
    'data_buf[4096]' in the do_token_in, do_token_out routines. This flaw allows a guest user to crash the
    QEMU process, resulting in a denial of service, or the potential execution of arbitrary code with the
    privileges of the QEMU process on the host. (CVE-2020-14364)

  - An out-of-bounds heap buffer access flaw was found in the way the iSCSI Block driver in QEMU versions
    2.12.0 before 4.2.1 handled a response coming from an iSCSI server while checking the status of a Logical
    Address Block (LBA) in an iscsi_co_block_status() routine. A remote user could use this flaw to crash the
    QEMU process, resulting in a denial of service or potential execution of arbitrary code with privileges of
    the QEMU process on the host. (CVE-2020-1711)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
