Detail
| A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 16.10 - Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in QEMU. Software Description: - qemu: Machine emulator and virtualizer - qemu-kvm: Machine emulator and virtualizer Details: Zhenhao Hong discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the Virtio module. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to consume resources, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-5403) Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled VMWARE VMXNET3 network card emulation support.

(CVE-2016-7157) Hu Chaojian discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled xlnx.xps-ethernetlite emulation support. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code on the host. In the default installation, when QEMU is used with libvirt, attackers would be isolated by the libvirt AppArmor profile. (CVE-2016-7161) Qinghao Tang and Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the VMWare VGA module. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-7170) Qinghao Tang and Zhenhao Hong discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the Virtio module. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.10. (CVE-2016-7422) Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled LSI SAS1068 host bus emulation support. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.10. (CVE-2016-7423) Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled USB xHCI controller emulation support. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 16.10. (CVE-2016-7466) Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled ColdFire Fast Ethernet Controller emulation support. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-7908) Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled AMD PC-Net II emulation support. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-7909) Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the Virtio GPU support.
