-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2016-275e9ff483 2016-02-01 20:30:53.300192 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : qemu Product : Fedora 22 Version : 2.3.1 Release : 11.fc22 URL : http://www.qemu.org/ Summary : QEMU is a FAST! processor emulator Description : QEMU is a generic and open source processor emulator which achieves a good emulation speed by using dynamic translation. QEMU has two operating modes: * Full system emulation. In this mode, QEMU emulates a full system (for example a PC), including a processor and various peripherials. It can be used to launch different Operating Systems without rebooting the PC or to debug system code. * User mode emulation. In this mode, QEMU can launch Linux processes compiled for one CPU on another CPU. As QEMU requires no host kernel patches to run, it is safe and easy to use. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: * CVE-2015-8567: net: vmxnet3: host memory leakage (bz #1289818) * CVE-2016-1922: i386: avoid null pointer dereference (bz #1292766) * CVE-2015-8613: buffer overflow in megasas_ctrl_get_info (bz #1284008) * CVE-2015-8743: ne2000: OOB memory access in ioport r/w functions (bz #1294787) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1284008 - CVE-2015-8613 Qemu: scsi: stack based buffer overflow in megasas_ctrl_get_info https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1284008 [ 2 ] Bug #1289816 - CVE-2015-8568 CVE-2015-8567 Qemu: net: vmxnet3: host memory leakage https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1289816 [ 3 ] Bug #1283934 - CVE-2016-1922 Qemu: i386: null pointer dereference in vapic_write() https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1283934 [ 4 ] Bug #1264929 - CVE-2015-8743 Qemu: net: ne2000: OOB memory access in ioport r/w functions https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1264929 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
