There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - 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
