CVE-2020-13361  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:16.04 qemu to version 1:2.5+dfsg-5ubuntu10.45 or higher.

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:16.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

In QEMU 5.0.0 and earlier, es1370_transfer_audio in hw/audio/es1370.c does not properly validate the frame count, which allows guest OS users to trigger an out-of-bounds access during an es1370_write() operation.
