script_tag(name:"insight", value:"qemu was updated to fix several security issues and bugs.
The following vulnerabilities were fixed:
- CVE-2015-5154: Heap-based buffer overflow in the IDE subsystem in QEMU,
when the container has a CDROM drive enabled, allows local guest users
to execute arbitrary code on the host via unspecified ATAPI commands.
(bsc#938344).
- CVE-2015-5278: QEMU was vulnerable to an infinite loop issue that could
occur when receiving packets over the network. (bsc#945989)
- CVE-2015-5279: QEMU was vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow issue that
could occur when receiving packets over the network. (bsc#945987)
- CVE-2015-6855: QEMU was vulnerable to a divide by zero issue that could
occur while executing an IDE command WIN_READ_NATIVE_MAX to determine
the maximum size of a drive. (bsc#945404)
- CVE-2014-7815: The set_pixel_format function in ui/vnc.c in QEMU allowed
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a small
bytes_per_pixel value. (bsc#902737):
Also these non-security issues were fixed:
- bsc#937572: Fixed dictzip on big endian systems
- bsc#934517: Fix 'info tlb' causes guest to freeze
- bsc#934506: Fix vte monitor console looks empty
- bsc#937125: Fix parsing of scsi-disk wwn uint64 property
- bsc#945778: Drop .probe hooks for DictZip and tar block drivers
- bsc#937572: Fold common-obj-y - block-obj-y change into original patches
- bsc#928308, bsc#944017: Fix virtio-ccw index errors when initrd gets too
large
- bsc#936537: Fix possible qemu-img error when converting to compressed
qcow2 image
- bsc#939216: Fix reboot fail after install using uefi
- bsc#943446: qemu-img convert doesn't create MB aligned VHDs anymore");
