CWE-189  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

This issue was patched in RHSA-2014:0420.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qemu-guest-agent package and not the qemu-guest-agent package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer overflow in the virtio_net_handle_mac function in hw/net/virtio-net.c in QEMU 2.0 and earlier allows local guest users to execute arbitrary code via a MAC addresses table update request, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
