CVE-2014-3615 [LOW] QEMU vulnerabilities
Title: QEMU vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in QEMU.
Laszlo Ersek discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled memory in the vga
device. A malicious guest could possibly use this issue to read arbitrary
host memory. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.10.
(CVE-2014-3615)
Xavier Mehrenberger and Stephane Duverger discovered that QEMU incorrectly
handled certain udp packets when using guest networking. A malicious guest
could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2014-3640)
It was discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled parameter validation in
the vmware_vga device. A malicious guest could possibly use this issue to
write into memory of the host, leading to privilege escalation.

CVE-2014-3615 [LOW] CWE-200 Qemu: information leakage when guest sets high resolution
Qemu: information leakage when guest sets high resolution
The VGA emulator in QEMU allows local guest users to read host memory by setting the display to a high resolution.
An information leak flaw was found in the way QEMU's VGA emulator accessed frame buffer memory for high resolution displays. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to leak memory contents of the host to the guest by setting the display to use a high resolution in the guest.
Statement: This issue does not affect the versions of kvm package as shipped with Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5 or the versions of qemu-kvm package as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

CVE-2014-3615 [LOW] CVE-2014-3615 Qemu: information leakage when guest sets high resolution
CVE-2014-3615 Qemu: information leakage when guest sets high resolution
An information leakage flaw was found in Qemu's VGA emulator. It could lead to
leaking host memory bytes to a VNC client. It could occur when a guest GOP
driver attempts to set a high display resolution.
A privileged user/program able to set such high resolution could use this flaw
to leak host memory bytes.
