the USN-2828-1 advisory.
Jason Wang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the virtio-net device. A remote attacker could use
this issue to cause guest network consumption, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-7295)
Qinghao Tang and Ling Liu discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the pcnet driver when used in loopback
mode. A malicious guest could use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary
code on the host as the user running the QEMU process. In the default installation, when QEMU is used with
libvirt, attackers would be isolated by the libvirt AppArmor profile. (CVE-2015-7504)
