Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qemu-ui-curses package and not the qemu-ui-curses package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the virtio-crypto device of QEMU. A malicious guest operating system can exploit a missing length limit in the AKCIPHER path, leading to uncontrolled memory allocation. This can result in a denial of service (DoS) on the host system by causing the QEMU process to terminate unexpectedly.
