(RHSA-2014:1941) Low: qemu-kvm-rhev security update

KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for
Linux on AMD64 and Intel 64 systems. The qemu-kvm-rhev package provides the
user-space component for running virtual machines using KVM, in
environments managed by Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform.

An information leak flaw was found in the way QEMU’s VGA emulator accessed
frame buffer memory for high resolution displays. A privileged guest user
could use this flaw to leak memory contents of the host to the guest by
setting the display to use a high resolution in the guest. (CVE-2014-3615)

This issue was discovered by Laszlo Ersek of Red Hat.

All users of qemu-kvm-rhev are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After
installing this update, shut down all running virtual machines. Once all
virtual machines have shut down, start them again for this update to take
effect.
