NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qemu package and not the qemu package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:14.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Buffer overflow in hw/ide/ahci.c in QEMU before 1.7.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to migrating ports.
