This update for qemu fixes the following issues :

Security issues fixed :

  - CVE-2019-9824: Fixed an information leak in slirp     (bsc#1129622)

  - CVE-2019-8934: Added method to specify whether or not to     expose certain ppc64 host information, which can be     considered a security issue (bsc#1126455)

  - CVE-2019-3812: Fixed OOB memory access and information     leak in virtual monitor interface (bsc#1125721)

  - CVE-2018-20815: Fix DOS possibility in device tree     processing (bsc#1130675)

  - Adjust fix for CVE-2019-8934 (bsc#1126455) to match the     latest upstream adjustments for the same. Basically now     the security fix is to provide a dummy host-model and     host-serial value, which overrides getting that value     from the host

  - CVE-2018-12126 CVE-2018-12127 CVE-2018-12130     CVE-2019-11091: Added x86 cpu feature 'md-clear'     (bsc#1111331)

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

  - A flaw was found in QEMU's Media Transfer Protocol     (MTP) where a path traversal in the in     usb_mtp_write_data function in hw/usb/dev-mtp.c due to     an improper file name sanitization. Reading and writing     of arbitrary files is allowed when a guest device is     mounted which may lead to a denial of service scenario     or possibly lead to code execution on the     host.(CVE-2018-16867)

  - A flaw was found in QEMU's Media Transfer Protocol     (MTP). The code opening files in usb_mtp_get_object and     usb_mtp_get_partial_object and directories in     usb_mtp_object_readdir doesn't consider that the     underlying filesystem may have changed since the time     lstat(2) was called in usb_mtp_object_alloc, a     classical TOCTTOU problem. An attacker with write     access to the host filesystem, shared with a guest, can     use this property to navigate the host filesystem in     the context of the QEMU process and read any file the     QEMU process has access to. Access to the filesystem     may be local or via a network share protocol such as     CIFS.(CVE-2018-16872)

  - hw/9pfs/cofile.c and hw/9pfs/9p.c in QEMU can modify an     fid path while it is being accessed by a second thread,     leading to (for example) a use-after-free     outcome.(CVE-2018-19364)

  - v9fs_wstat in hw/9pfs/9p.c in QEMU allows guest OS     users to cause a denial of service (crash) because of a     race condition during file renaming.(CVE-2018-19489)

  - hw/rdma/vmw/pvrdma_main.c in QEMU does not implement a     read operation (such as uar_read by analogy to     uar_write), which allows attackers to cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference).(CVE-2018-20191)

  - QEMU, through version 2.10 and through version 3.1.0,     is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds read of up to 128     bytes in the hw/i2c/i2c-ddc.c:i2c_ddc() function. A     local attacker with permission to execute i2c commands     could exploit this to read stack memory of the qemu     process on the host.(CVE-2019-3812)

  - In QEMU 3.0.0, tcp_emu in slirp/tcp_subr.c has a     heap-based buffer overflow.(CVE-2019-6778)

  - Memory leak in hw/audio/ac97.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-2017-5525)

  - Memory leak in hw/audio/es1370.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-2017-5526)

  - The sdhci_sdma_transfer_multi_blocks function in     hw/sd/sdhci.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows local     OS guest privileged users to cause a denial of service     (infinite loop and QEMU process crash) via vectors     involving the transfer mode register during multi block     transfer.(CVE-2017-5987)

  - An integer overflow flaw was found in Quick Emulator     (QEMU) in the CCID Card device support. The flaw could     occur while passing messages via command/response     packets to and from the host. A privileged user inside     a guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU     process.(CVE-2017-5898)

  - The xhci_kick_epctx function in hw/usb/hcd-xhci.c in     QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows local guest OS     privileged users to cause a denial of service (infinite     loop and QEMU process crash) via vectors related to     control transfer descriptor sequence.(CVE-2017-5973)

  - Memory leak in the megasas_handle_dcmd function in     hw/scsi/megasas.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows     local guest OS privileged users to cause a denial of     service (host memory consumption) via MegaRAID Firmware     Interface (MFI) commands with the sglist size set to a     value over 2 Gb.(CVE-2017-5856)

  - 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)

  - 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)

  - 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, through version 2.10 and through version 3.1.0,     is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds read of up to 128     bytes in the hw/i2c/i2c-ddc.c:i2c_ddc() function. A     local attacker with permission to execute i2c commands     could exploit this to read stack memory of the qemu     process on the host.(CVE-2019-3812)

  - A flaw was found in QEMU's Media Transfer Protocol     (MTP). The code opening files in usb_mtp_get_object and     usb_mtp_get_partial_object and directories in     usb_mtp_object_readdir doesn't consider that the     underlying filesystem may have changed since the time     lstat(2) was called in usb_mtp_object_alloc, a     classical TOCTTOU problem.

Access to the filesystem     may be local or via a network share protocol such as     CIFS.(CVE-2018-16872)

  - ** DISPUTED ** 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)

  - 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)

  - Qemu has integer overflows because IOReadHandler and     its associated functions use a signed integer data type     for a size value.(CVE-2018-18438)

  - The Bluetooth subsystem in QEMU mishandles negative     values for length variables, leading to memory     corruption.(CVE-2018-19665)
