Memory leak in the keyboard input event handlers support in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows local guest OS privileged users to cause a denial of service (host memory consumption) by rapidly generating large keyboard events.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Memory leak in the keyboard input event handlers support in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows local guest     OS privileged users to cause a denial of service (host memory consumption) by rapidly generating large     keyboard events. (CVE-2017-8379)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:2408 advisory.

    KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on a variety of     architectures. The qemu-kvm-rhev packages provide the user-space component for running virtual machines     that use KVM in environments managed by Red Hat products.

    Security Fix(es):

    * Quick Emulator (QEMU) built with Network Block Device (NBD) Server support was vulnerable to a null-     pointer dereference issue. The flaw could occur when releasing a client that was not initialized due to     failed negotiation. A remote user or process could exploit this flaw to crash the qemu-nbd server (denial     of service). (CVE-2017-9524)

    * An information-exposure flaw was found in Quick Emulator (QEMU) in Task Priority Register (TPR)     optimizations for 32-bit Windows guests. The flaw could occur while accessing TPR. A privileged user     inside a guest could use this issue to read portions of the host memory. (CVE-2016-4020)

    * A memory-leak flaw was found in the Quick Emulator (QEMU) built with USB xHCI controller emulation     support. The flaw could occur while doing a USB-device unplug operation. Unplugging the device repeatedly     resulted in leaking host memory, which affected other services on the host. A privileged user inside the     guest could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service on the host or potentially crash the host's     QEMU process instance. (CVE-2016-7466)

    * Multiple CVEs were fixed as a result of rebase to QEMU 2.9.0. (CVE-2016-6888, CVE-2016-7422,     CVE-2016-8576, CVE-2016-8669, CVE-2016-8909, CVE-2016-8910, CVE-2016-9907, CVE-2016-9911, CVE-2016-9921,     CVE-2016-9922, CVE-2016-10155, CVE-2017-5579, CVE-2017-5973, CVE-2017-6414, CVE-2017-8309, CVE-2017-8379,     CVE-2017-9310, CVE-2017-9373, CVE-2017-9374, CVE-2017-9375)

According to the versions of the qemu packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Quick Emulator (Qemu) built with the VirtFS, host     directory sharing via Plan 9 File System(9pfs) support,     is vulnerable to an improper access control issue. It     could occur while accessing virtfs metadata files in     mapped-file security mode. A guest user could use this     flaw to escalate their privileges inside     guest.(CVE-2017-7493)

  - qemu-bridge-helper.c in QEMU 4.0.0 does not ensure that     a network interface name (obtained from bridge.conf or     a --br=bridge option) is limited to the IFNAMSIZ size,     which can lead to an ACL bypass.(CVE-2019-13164)

  - Qemu has a Buffer Overflow in pcnet_receive in     hw/net/pcnet.c because an incorrect integer data type     is used.(CVE-2018-17962)

  - Buffer overflow in the 'megasas_mmio_write' function in     Qemu 2.9.0 allows remote attackers to have unspecified     impact via unknown vectors.(CVE-2017-8380)

  - qemu_deliver_packet_iov in net/net.c in Qemu accepts     packet sizes greater than INT_MAX, which allows     attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have     unspecified other impact.(CVE-2018-17963)

  - In QEMU 3.1.0, load_device_tree in device_tree.c calls     the deprecated load_image function, which has a buffer     overflow risk.(CVE-2018-20815)

  - interface_release_resource in hw/display/qxl.c in QEMU     4.0.0 has a NULL pointer dereference.(CVE-2019-12155)

  - An issue was discovered in ide_dma_cb() in     hw/ide/core.c in QEMU 2.4.0 through 4.2.0. The guest     system can crash the QEMU process in the host system     via a special SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND. It hits an     assertion that implies that the size of successful DMA     transfers there must be a multiple of 512 (the size of     a sector). NOTE: a member of the QEMU security team     disputes the significance of this issue because a     'privileged guest user has many ways to cause similar     DoS effect, without triggering this     assert.'(CVE-2019-20175)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the sofree function in     slirp/socket.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows     attackers to cause a denial of service (QEMU instance     crash) by leveraging failure to properly clear ifq_so     from pending packets.(CVE-2017-13711)

  - Qemu has a Buffer Overflow in rtl8139_do_receive in     hw/net/rtl8139.c because an incorrect integer data type     is used.(CVE-2018-17958)

  - ip_reass in ip_input.c in libslirp 4.0.0 has a     heap-based buffer overflow via a large packet because     it mishandles a case involving the first     fragment.(CVE-2019-14378)

  - m_cat in slirp/mbuf.c in Qemu has a heap-based buffer     overflow via incoming fragmented     datagrams.(CVE-2018-11806)

  - Memory leak in the audio/audio.c in QEMU (aka Quick     Emulator) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (memory consumption) by repeatedly starting and     stopping audio capture.(CVE-2017-8309)

  - Memory leak in the keyboard input event handlers     support in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows local guest     OS privileged users to cause a denial of service (host     memory consumption) by rapidly generating large     keyboard events.(CVE-2017-8379)

  - hw/input/ps2.c in Qemu does not validate 'rptr' and     'count' values during guest migration, leading to     out-of-bounds access(CVE-2017-16845)

  - The cirrus_invalidate_region function in     hw/display/cirrus_vga.c in Qemu allows local OS guest     privileged users to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds array access and QEMU process crash) via     vectors related to negative pitch.(CVE-2017-18030)

  - An out-of-bounds read/write access flaw was found in     the USB emulator of the QEMU in versions before 5.2.0.
    This issue occurs while processing USB packets from a     guest when USBDevice 'setup_len' exceeds its     'data_buf[4096]' in the do_token_in, do_token_out     routines. This flaw allows a guest user to crash the     QEMU process, resulting in a denial of service, or the     potential execution of arbitrary code with the     privileges of the QEMU process on the     host.(CVE-2020-14364)

According to the versions of the qemu-kvm packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - qemu-kvm is an open source virtualizer that provides     hardware emulation for the KVM hypervisor. qemu-kvm     acts as a virtual machine monitor together with the KVM     kernel modules, and emulates the hardware for a full     system such as a PC and its assocated peripherals. As     qemu-kvm requires no host kernel patches to run, it is     safe and easy to use. Security Fix(es):Memory leak in     hw/watchdog/wdt_i6300esb.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator)     allows local guest OS privileged users to cause a     denial of service (host memory consumption and QEMU     process crash) via a large number of device unplug     operations.(CVE-2016-10155)Memory leak in the     audio/audio.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory     consumption) by repeatedly starting and stopping audio     capture.(CVE-2017-8309)Memory leak in the keyboard     input event handlers support in QEMU (aka Quick     Emulator) allows local guest OS privileged users to     cause a denial of service (host memory consumption) by     rapidly generating large keyboard     events.(CVE-2017-8379)hw/input/ps2.c in Qemu does not     validate 'rptr' and 'count' values during guest     migration, leading to out-of-bounds access.
    (CVE-2017-16845)The cirrus_invalidate_region function     in hw/display/cirrus_vga.c in Qemu allows local OS     guest privileged users to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds array access and QEMU process crash) via     vectors related to negative pitch.(CVE-2017-18030)Quick     Emulator (Qemu) built with the VirtFS, host directory     sharing via Plan 9 File System (9pfs) support, is     vulnerable to an improper access control issue. It     could occur while accessing files on a shared host     directory. A privileged user inside guest could use     this flaw to access host file system beyond the shared     folder and potentially escalating their privileges on a     host.(CVE-2017-7471)An out-of-bounds read vulnerability     was found in the SLiRP networking implementation of the     QEMU emulator. This flaw occurs in the     icmp6_send_echoreply() routine while replying to an     ICMP echo request, also known as ping. This flaw allows     a malicious guest to leak the contents of the host     memory, resulting in possible information disclosure.
    This flaw affects versions of libslirp before     4.3.1.(CVE-2020-10756)The rc4030_write function in     hw/dma/rc4030.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows     local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of     service (divide-by-zero error and QEMU process crash)     via a large interval timer reload value.(CVE-2016-8667)

According to the versions of the qemu packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An integer overflow issue was found in the NE200 NIC     emulation. It could occur while receiving packets from     the network, if the size value was greater than     INT_MAX. Such overflow would lead to stack buffer     overflow issue. A user inside guest could use this flaw     to crash the QEMU process, resulting in DoS scenario.
    (CVE-2018-10839)

  - qmp_guest_file_read in qga/commands-posix.c and     qga/commands-win32.c in qemu-ga (aka QEMU Guest Agent)     in QEMU 2.12.50 has an integer overflow causing a     g_malloc0() call to trigger a segmentation fault when     trying to allocate a large memory chunk. The     vulnerability can be exploited by sending a crafted QMP     command (including guest-file-read with a large count     value) to the agent via the listening     socket.(CVE-2018-12617)

  - Qemu before version 2.9 is vulnerable to an improper     link following when built with the VirtFS. A privileged     user inside guest could use this flaw to access host     file system beyond the shared folder and potentially     escalating their privileges on a host. (CVE-2016-9602)

  - Quick Emulator (QEMU), compiled with the PC System     Emulator with multiboot feature support, is vulnerable     to an OOB r/w memory access issue. The issue could     occur while loading a kernel image during the guest     boot, if mh_load_end_addr address is greater than the     mh_bss_end_addr address. A user or process could use     this flaw to potentially achieve arbitrary code     execution on a host.(CVE-2018-7550)

  - An out-of-bounds read access issue was found in the VGA     display emulator built into the Quick emulator (QEMU).
    It could occur while reading VGA memory to update     graphics display. A privileged user/process inside     guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on     the host resulting in denial of service     situation.(CVE-2017-13672)

  - An assert failure issue was found in the VGA display     emulator built into the Quick emulator (QEMU). It could     occur while updating graphics display, due to     miscalculating region for dirty bitmap snapshot in     split screen mode. A privileged user/process inside     guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on     the host resulting in denial of service.
    (CVE-2017-13673)

  - The Network Block Device (NBD) server in Quick Emulator     (QEMU), is vulnerable to a denial of service issue. It     could occur if a client sent large option requests,     making the server waste CPU time on reading up to 4GB     per request. A client could use this flaw to keep the     NBD server from serving other requests, resulting in     DoS.(CVE-2017-15119)

  - QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) before 2.9.0, when built with     the USB OHCI Emulation support, allows local guest OS     users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) by     leveraging an incorrect return value, a different     vulnerability than CVE-2017-6505.(CVE-2017-9330)

  - Integer overflow in the macro ROUND_UP (n, d) in Quick     Emulator (Qemu) allows a user to cause a denial of     service (Qemu process crash). (CVE-2017-18043)

  - VNC server implementation in Quick Emulator (QEMU) was     found to be vulnerable to an unbounded memory     allocation issue, as it did not throttle the     framebuffer updates sent to its client. If the client     did not consume these updates, VNC server allocates     growing memory to hold onto this data. A malicious     remote VNC client could use this flaw to cause DoS to     the server host.(CVE-2017-15124)

  - A memory leakage issue was found in the I/O channels     websockets implementation of the Quick Emulator (QEMU).
    It could occur while sending screen updates to a     client, which is slow to read and process them further.

According to the versions of the qemu-kvm packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An integer overflow issue was found in the NE200 NIC     emulation. It could occur while receiving packets from     the network, if the size value was greater than     INT_MAX. Such overflow would lead to stack buffer     overflow issue. A user inside guest could use this flaw     to crash the QEMU process, resulting in DoS scenario.
    (CVE-2018-10839)

  - qmp_guest_file_read in qga/commands-posix.c and     qga/commands-win32.c in qemu-ga (aka QEMU Guest Agent)     in QEMU 2.12.50 has an integer overflow causing a     g_malloc0() call to trigger a segmentation fault when     trying to allocate a large memory chunk. The     vulnerability can be exploited by sending a crafted QMP     command (including guest-file-read with a large count     value) to the agent via the listening     socket.(CVE-2018-12617)

  - Qemu before version 2.9 is vulnerable to an improper     link following when built with the VirtFS. A privileged     user inside guest could use this flaw to access host     file system beyond the shared folder and potentially     escalating their privileges on a host. (CVE-2016-9602)

  - Quick Emulator (QEMU), compiled with the PC System     Emulator with multiboot feature support, is vulnerable     to an OOB r/w memory access issue. The issue could     occur while loading a kernel image during the guest     boot, if mh_load_end_addr address is greater than the     mh_bss_end_addr address. A user or process could use     this flaw to potentially achieve arbitrary code     execution on a host.(CVE-2018-7550)

  - An out-of-bounds read access issue was found in the VGA     display emulator built into the Quick emulator (QEMU).
    It could occur while reading VGA memory to update     graphics display. A privileged user/process inside     guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on     the host resulting in denial of service     situation.(CVE-2017-13672)

  - An assert failure issue was found in the VGA display     emulator built into the Quick emulator (QEMU). It could     occur while updating graphics display, due to     miscalculating region for dirty bitmap snapshot in     split screen mode. A privileged user/process inside     guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on     the host resulting in denial of service.
    (CVE-2017-13673)

  - The Network Block Device (NBD) server in Quick Emulator     (QEMU), is vulnerable to a denial of service issue. It     could occur if a client sent large option requests,     making the server waste CPU time on reading up to 4GB     per request. A client could use this flaw to keep the     NBD server from serving other requests, resulting in     DoS.(CVE-2017-15119)

  - QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) before 2.9.0, when built with     the USB OHCI Emulation support, allows local guest OS     users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) by     leveraging an incorrect return value, a different     vulnerability than CVE-2017-6505.(CVE-2017-9330)

  - Integer overflow in the macro ROUND_UP (n, d) in Quick     Emulator (Qemu) allows a user to cause a denial of     service (Qemu process crash). (CVE-2017-18043)

  - VNC server implementation in Quick Emulator (QEMU) was     found to be vulnerable to an unbounded memory     allocation issue, as it did not throttle the     framebuffer updates sent to its client. If the client     did not consume these updates, VNC server allocates     growing memory to hold onto this data. A malicious     remote VNC client could use this flaw to cause DoS to     the server host.(CVE-2017-15124)

  - A memory leakage issue was found in the I/O channels     websockets implementation of the Quick Emulator (QEMU).
    It could occur while sending screen updates to a     client, which is slow to read and process them further.
    A privileged guest user could use this flaw to cause a     denial of service on the host and/or potentially crash     the QEMU process instance on the host.(CVE-2017-15268)

  - Quick Emulator (QEMU), compiled with the PC System     Emulator with multiboot feature support, is vulnerable     to an OOB r/w memory access issue.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201706-03 (QEMU: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in QEMU. Please review the       CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker might cause a Denial of Service or gain escalated       privileges from a guest VM.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3289-1 advisory.

    Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled VirtFS directory sharing. A privileged attacker inside     the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-7377,     CVE-2017-8086)

    Jiangxin discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the Cirrus VGA device. A privileged attacker inside the     guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-7718)

    Li Qiang and Jiangxin discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the Cirrus VGA device when being used with     a VNC connection. 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-2017-7980)

    Jiang Xin discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the audio subsystem. A privileged attacker inside the     guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-8309)

    Jiang Xin discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the input subsystem. 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, Ubuntu 16.10 and Ubuntu 17.04. (CVE-2017-8379)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
