NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qemu-kvm package and not the qemu-kvm package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:12.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

pci_change_irq_level in hw/pci/pci.c in QEMU before 5.1.1 has a NULL pointer dereference because pci_get_bus() might not return a valid pointer.
