USN-3575-1 fixed vulnerabilities in QEMU. The fix for CVE-2017-11334 caused
a regression in Xen environments. This update removes the problematic fix
pending further investigation.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Original advisory details:
It was discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled guest ram. 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
and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2017-11334)

CVE-2017-15289 [MEDIUM] CWE-787 Qemu: cirrus: OOB access issue in mode4and5 write functions
Qemu: cirrus: OOB access issue in mode4and5 write functions
The mode4and5 write functions in hw/display/cirrus_vga.c in Qemu allow local OS guest privileged users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write access and Qemu process crash) via vectors related to dst calculation.
Quick emulator (QEMU), compiled with the Cirrus CLGD 54xx VGA Emulator support, is vulnerable to an OOB write access issue. The issue could occur while writing to VGA memory via mode4and5 write functions. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process resulting in Denial of Serivce (DoS).
