CVE-2015-5239 [MEDIUM] QEMU vulnerabilities
Title: QEMU vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in QEMU.
Lian Yihan discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled certain payload
messages in the VNC display driver. A malicious guest could use this issue
to cause the QEMU process to hang, resulting in a denial of service. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2015-5239)
Qinghao Tang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled receiving certain
packets in the NE2000 network driver. A malicious guest could use this
issue to cause the QEMU process to hang, resulting in a denial of service.

The process_tx_desc function in hw/net/e1000.c in QEMU before 2.4.0.1 does not properly process transmit descriptor data when sending a network packet, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and guest crash) via unspecified vectors.
A flaw was found in the way a QEMU-emulated e1000 network interface card processed transmit descriptor data when sending a network packet. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to crash the guest.
