xen-tools -- cirrus_bitblt_cputovideo does not check if memory region is safe

The Xen Project reports: In CIRRUSBLTMODEMEMSYSSRC mode the bitblit copy routine cirrusbitbltcputovideo fails to check whether the specified memory region is safe. A malicious guest administrator can cause an out of bounds memory write, very likely exploitable as a privilege escalation...

UBUNTU-CVE-2015-8817

QEMU aka Quick Emulator built to use 'addressspacetranslate' to map an address to a MemoryRegionSection is vulnerable to an OOB r/w access issue. It could occur while doing pcidmaread/write calls. Affects QEMU versions = 1.6.0 and = 2.3.1. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to cra...
