CVE-2016-5403 [MEDIUM] QEMU vulnerabilities
Title: QEMU vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in QEMU.
Zhenhao Hong discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the Virtio module. A
privileged attacker inside the guest could use this issue to cause QEMU to
consume resources, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-5403)
Li Qiang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled VMWARE VMXNET3 network
card emulation support. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use
this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 16.10.

CVE-2016-7155 Qemu: scsi: pvscsi: OOB read and infinite loop while setting descriptor rings
Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the VMWARE PVSCSI paravirtual SCSI bus
emulation support is vulnerable to an OOB access and/or infinite loop issue.
It could occur while processing SCSI commands 'PVSCSI_CMD_SETUP_RINGS'.
A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process
resulting in DoS.
