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.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the megasas_ctrl_get_info function in QEMU, when built with SCSI MegaRAID SAS HBA emulation support, allows local guest users to cause a denial of service (QEMU instance crash) via a crafted SCSI controller CTRL_GET_INFO command.
