CVE-2017-17381 Qemu: virtio: divide by zero exception while updating rings
Virtio Vring implementation in Quick Emulator(QEMU) is vulnerable
to an arithmetic exception issue. It could occur if a guest was
to unset vring alignment while updating Virtio rings.
A guest user/process could use this flaw to crash Qemu process
resulting in DoS.
