"An update for qemu-kvm-rhev is now available for Red Hat
Virtualization 4 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security
impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each
vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution
for Linux on a variety of architectures. The qemu-kvm-rhev packages
provide the user-space component for running virtual machines that use
KVM in environments managed by Red Hat products.

Security Fix(es) :

* An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern
microprocessor designs have implemented speculative execution of Load
& Store instructions (a commonly used performance optimization). It
relies on the presence of a precisely-defined instruction sequence in
the privileged code as well as the fact that memory read from address
to which a recent memory write has occurred may see an older value and
subsequently cause an update into the microprocessor's data cache even
for speculatively executed instructions that never actually commit
(retire). As a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to
read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache side-channel
attacks. (CVE-2018-3639)

Red Hat would like to thank Ken Johnson (Microsoft Security Response
Center) and Jann Horn (Google Project Zero) for reporting this issue.

Note: This is the qemu-kvm-rhev side of the CVE-2018-3639 mitigation
that includes support for guests running on hosts with AMD processors.

Bug Fix(es) :

* Previously, using device passthrough for a SCSI-2 device failed and
returned an 'Illegal Request' error. With this update, the QEMU
emulator checks the SCSI version of the device when performing
passthrough. As a result, the described problem no longer occurs.
(BZ#1571370)

* Under certain circumstances, resuming a paused guest generated
redundant 'VIR_DOMAIN_PAUSED_UNKNOWN' error messages in the libvirt
log. This update corrects the event sending order when resuming
guests, which prevents the errors being logged. (BZ#1582122)

Enhancement(s) :

* With this update, Ceph storage is supported by KVM virtualization on
all CPU architectures supported by Red Hat. (BZ#1588001)"
