NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qemu-kvm-core package and not the qemu-kvm-core package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the SDHCI device emulation of QEMU. The bug is triggered when both s-&gt;data_count and the size of s-&gt;fifo_buffer are set to 0x200, leading to an out-of-bound access. A malicious guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service condition.
