CVE-2007-5729 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Debian:unstable
qemu
to version 0.9.0-2 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:unstable
relevant fixed versions and status.
The NE2000 emulator in QEMU 0.8.2 allows local users to execute arbitrary code by writing Ethernet frames with a size larger than the MTU to the EN0_TCNT register, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow in the slirp library, aka NE2000 "mtu" heap overflow. NOTE: some sources have used CVE-2007-1321 to refer to this issue as part of "NE2000 network driver and the socket code," but this is the correct identifier for the mtu overflow vulnerability.
