An integer overflow and buffer overflow issues were found in the ACPI Error Record Serialization Table (ERST) device of QEMU in the read_erst_record() and write_erst_record() functions. Both issues may allow the guest to overrun the host buffer allocated for the ERST memory device. A malicious guest could use these flaws to crash the QEMU process on the host.

qemu vulnerabilities
It was discovered that QEMU did not properly manage the guest drivers when
shared buffers are not allocated. A malicious guest driver could use this
issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly
execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu
22.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.10. (CVE-2022-1050)
It was discovered that QEMU did not properly check the size of the
