Moderate: virt:rhel and virt-devel:rhel security, bug fix, and enhancement update

Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) offers a full virtualization solution for Linux on numerous hardware platforms. The virt:Rocky Linux module contains packages which provide user-space components used to run virtual machines using KVM. The packages also provide APIs for managing and interacting with the virtualized systems.

Security Fix(es):

• QEMU: QXL: integer overflow in cursor_alloc() can lead to heap buffer overflow (CVE-2021-4206)
