kernel: int80 fork from 64-bit tasks mishandling

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's 32-bit emulation implementation handled forking or closing of a task with an 'int80' entry. A local user could potentially use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system...

FreeBSD : xen-kernel -- Information leak via internal x86 system device emulation (5023f559-27e2-11e5-a4a5-002590263bf5)

The Xen Project reports : Emulation routines in the hypervisor dealing with certain system devices check whether the access size by the guest is a supported one. When the access size is unsupported these routines failed to set the data to be returned to the guest for read accesses, so that...

FreeBSD : xen-kernel -- arm: vgic-v2: GICD_SGIR is not properly emulated (785c86b1-27d6-11e5-a4a5-002590263bf5)

The Xen Project reports : When decoding a guest write to a specific register in the virtual interrupt controller Xen would treat an invalid value as a critical error and crash the host. By writing an invalid value to the GICD.SGIR register a guest can crash the host, resulting in a Denial of...

The vulnerability of the QEMU hardware emulation software allows a hacker to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability of the QEMU hardware emulation software arises from an overflow in the buffer of dynamic memory. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code by sending specially crafted packets containing the TXSTATUSSTARTPACKET and TXSTATUSDEVICEOWNS fields...

qemu: pcnet: multi-tmd buffer overflow in the tx path

A flaw was found in the way QEMU's AMD PCnet Ethernet emulation handled multi-TMD packets with a length above 4096 bytes. A privileged guest user in a guest with an AMD PCNet ethernet card enabled could potentially use this flaw to execute arbitrary code on the host with the privileges of the...

[SECURITY] Fedora 21 Update: qemu-2.1.3-8.fc21

QEMU is a generic and open source processor emulator which achieves a good emulation speed by using dynamic translation. QEMU has two operating modes: Full system emulation. In this mode, QEMU emulates a full system for example a PC, including a processor and various peripherials. It can be used ...

qemu -- code execution on host machine

Petr Matousek of Red Hat Inc. reports: Due converting PIO to the new memory read/write api we no longer provide separate I/O region lenghts for read and write operations. As a result, reading from PIT Mode/Command register will end with accessing pit-channels with invalid index and potentially...
