NVD Description

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

Heap-based buffer overflow in SPICE before 0.12.6 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (heap-based memory corruption and QEMU-KVM crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code on the host via QXL commands related to the surface_id parameter.
