MiracleLinux 4 : qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.160.AXS4.8 (AXSA:2011-600:02)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 291491

Synopsis

The remote MiracleLinux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2011-600:02 advisory.

 KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on x86 hardware.
 Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual machines running unmodified Linux or Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualized hardware: a network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc.
 Security issues fixed with this release:
 CVE-2011-1750 CVE-2011-1751 CVE-2011-2212 CVE-2011-2512 No description available at the time of writing, please use the CVE links below.
 Fixed bugs:
 - If a guest system had more than 4 GB of memory, the host kernel's vhost module might not have a complete view of the guest system's memory. This could result in a hot plugged vhost-net network device not working after restarting the guest. This has been fixed.

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

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

Solution

Update the affected qemu-img, qemu-kvm and / or qemu-kvm-tools packages.
