Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Qemu

A flaw was discovered in QEMU. The async nature of hot-unplug allows for a race condition, where the net device backend is cleared before the virtio-net PCI frontend is unplugged. A malicious guest could exploit this time window to trigger an assertion and cause a denial of service...
