Upgrade Debian:12 qemu to version 1:5.2+dfsg-11 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qemu package and not the qemu package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the QEMU implementation of VMWare's paravirtual RDMA device. The issue occurs while handling a "PVRDMA_CMD_CREATE_MR" command due to improper memory remapping (mremap). This flaw allows a malicious guest to crash the QEMU process on the host. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
