The remote Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RLSA-2022:7472 advisory.

  - A heap buffer overflow was found in the floppy disk emulator of QEMU up to 6.0.0 (including). It could     occur in fdctrl_transfer_handler() in hw/block/fdc.c while processing DMA read data transfers from the     floppy drive to the guest system. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on     the host resulting in DoS scenario, or potential information leakage from the host memory. (CVE-2021-3507)

  - A flaw was found in the libvirt nwfilter driver. The virNWFilterObjListNumOfNWFilters method failed to     acquire the driver->nwfilters mutex before iterating over virNWFilterObj instances. There was no     protection to stop another thread from concurrently modifying the driver->nwfilters object. This flaw     allows a malicious, unprivileged user to exploit this issue via libvirt's API virConnectNumOfNWFilters to     crash the network filter management daemon (libvirtd/virtnwfilterd). (CVE-2022-0897)

  - A vulnerability was found in libguestfs. This issue occurs while calculating the greatest possible number     of matching keys in the get_keys() function. This flaw leads to a denial of service, either by mistake or     malicious actor. (CVE-2022-2211)

  - swtpm is a libtpms-based TPM emulator with socket, character device, and Linux CUSE interface. Versions     prior to 0.5.3, 0.6.2, and 0.7.1 are vulnerable to out-of-bounds read. A specially crafted header of     swtpm's state, where the blobheader's hdrsize indicator has an invalid value, may cause an out-of-bounds     access when the byte array representing the state of the TPM is accessed. This will likely crash swtpm or     prevent it from starting since the state cannot be understood. Users should upgrade to swtpm v0.5.3,     v0.6.2, or v0.7.1 to receive a patch. There are currently no known workarounds. (CVE-2022-23645)

The qxl_phys2virt()     function does not check the size of the structure pointed to by the guest physical address, potentially     reading past the end of the bar space into adjacent pages. A malicious guest user could use this flaw to     crash the QEMU process on the host causing a denial of service condition. (CVE-2022-4144)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

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

  - An infinite loop flaw was found in the USB xHCI controller emulation of QEMU while computing the length of     the Transfer Request Block (TRB) Ring. This flaw allows a privileged guest user to hang the QEMU process     on the host, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2020-14394)

  - A heap buffer overflow was found in the floppy disk emulator of QEMU up to 6.0.0 (including). It could     occur in fdctrl_transfer_handler() in hw/block/fdc.c while processing DMA read data transfers from the     floppy drive to the guest system. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on     the host resulting in DoS scenario, or potential information leakage from the host memory. (CVE-2021-3507)

  - A DMA reentrancy issue was found in the NVM Express Controller (NVME) emulation in QEMU. This CVE is     similar to CVE-2021-3750 and, just like it, when the reentrancy write triggers the reset function     nvme_ctrl_reset(), data structs will be freed leading to a use-after-free issue. A malicious guest could     use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service condition or,     potentially, executing arbitrary code within the context of the QEMU process on the host. (CVE-2021-3929)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the LSI53C895A SCSI Host Bus Adapter emulation of QEMU. The     flaw occurs while processing repeated messages to cancel the current SCSI request via the lsi_do_msgout     function. This flaw allows a malicious privileged user within the guest to crash the QEMU process on the     host, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2022-0216)

  - A heap buffer overflow was found in the floppy disk emulator of QEMU up to 6.0.0 (including). It could     occur in fdctrl_transfer_handler() in hw/block/fdc.c while processing DMA read data transfers from the     floppy drive to the guest system. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on     the host resulting in DoS scenario, or potential information leakage from the host memory. (CVE-2021-3507)

  - A flaw was found in the QXL display device emulation in QEMU. An integer overflow in the cursor_alloc()     function can lead to the allocation of a small cursor object followed by a subsequent heap-based buffer     overflow. This flaw allows a malicious privileged guest user to crash the QEMU process on the host or     potentially execute arbitrary code within the context of the QEMU process. (CVE-2021-4206)

  - A flaw was found in the QXL display device emulation in QEMU. A double fetch of guest controlled values     `cursor->header.width` and `cursor->header.height` can lead to the allocation of a small cursor object     followed by a subsequent heap-based buffer overflow. A malicious privileged guest user could use this flaw     to crash the QEMU process on the host or potentially execute arbitrary code within the context of the QEMU     process. (CVE-2021-4207)

  - libvirt: segmentation fault during VM shutdown can lead to vdsm hang (CVE-2021-3975)

  - A flaw was found in the virtio-net device of QEMU. This flaw was inadvertently introduced with the fix for     CVE-2021-3748, which forgot to unmap the cached virtqueue elements on error, leading to memory leakage and     other unexpected results. Affected QEMU version: 6.2.0. (CVE-2022-26353)

  - A flaw was found in the vhost-vsock device of QEMU. In case of error, an invalid element was not detached     from the virtqueue before freeing its memory, leading to memory leakage and other unexpected results.
    Affected QEMU versions <= 6.2.0. (CVE-2022-26354)
