CVE-2015-7512

Buffer overflow in the pcnet_receive function in hw/net/pcnet.c in QEMU, when a guest NIC has a larger MTU, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or execute arbitrary code via a large packet.

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the way QEMU's AMD PC-Net II Ethernet Controller emulation received certain packets in loopback mode. A privileged user (with the CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability) inside a guest could use this flaw to crash the host QEMU process (resulting in denial of service) or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with privileges of the host QEMU process (CVE-2015-7504)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way QEMU's AMD PC-Net II emulation validated certain received packets from a remote host in non-loopback mode. A remote, unprivileged attacker could potentially use this flaw to execute arbitrary code on the host with the privileges of the QEMU process. Note that to exploit this flaw, the guest network interface must have a large MTU limit (CVE-2015-7512)

A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability was found in the QEMU emulator built with PCI MSI-X support. Because MSI-X MMIO support did not define the .write method, when the controller tried to write to the pending bit array(PBA) memory region, a segmentation fault occurred. A privileged attacker inside the guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process resulting in denial of service (CVE-2015-7549)

An infinite-loop flaw was discovered in the QEMU emulator built with i8255x (PRO100) emulation support. When processing a chain of commands located in the Command Block List(CBL), each Command Block(CB) points to the next command in the list. If the link to the next CB pointed to the same block or if there was a closed loop in the chain, an infinite loop would execute the same command over and over again. A privileged user inside the guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU instance, resulting in denial of service (CVE-2015-8345).

An arithmetic-exception flaw was found in the QEMU emulator built with VNC display-driver support. The VNC server incorrectly handled 'SetPixelFormat' messages sent from clients. A privileged remote client could use this flaw to crash the guest resulting in denial of service (CVE-2015-8504).

An infinite-loop issue was found in the QEMU emulator built with USB EHCI emulation support. The flaw occurred during communication between the host controller interface(EHCI) and a respective device driver. These two communicate using an isochronous transfer descriptor list(iTD). an infinite loop unfolded if there was a closed loop in the list. A privileged user inside a guest could use this flaw to consume excessive resources and cause denial of service (CVE-2015-8558).

A memory-leak flaw was found in the QEMU emulator built with VMWARE VMXNET3 paravirtual NIC emulator support. The flaw occurred when a guest repeatedly tried to activate the VMXNET3 device. A privileged guest attacker could use this flaw to leak host memory, resulting in denial of service on the host. (CVE-2015-8567, CVE-2015-8568)

A stack buffer-overflow vulnerability has been discovered in the QEMU emulator built with SCSI MegaRAID SAS HBA emulation support. The flaw occurs when processing the SCSI controller's CTRL_GET_INFO command. A privileged guest user could exploit this flaw to crash the QEMU process instance (denial of service). (CVE-2015-8613)

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability has been found in the QEMU emulator built with Human Monitor Interface(HMP) support. The issue occurs when the 'sendkey' command (in hmp_sendkey) is processed with a 'keyname_len' that is greater than the 'keyname_buf' array size. A user or process could exploit this flaw to crash the QEMU process instance (denial of service). (CVE-2015-8619)

Qemu emulator built with the Q35 chipset based pc system emulator is vulnerable to a heap based buffer overflow. It occurs during VM guest migration, as more(8 bytes) data is moved than allocated memory area. A privileged guest user could use this issue to corrupt the VM guest image, potentially leading to a DoS. This issue affects q35 machine types. (CVE-2015-8666)

An out-of-bounds read-write access flaw was found in the…

• CVE-2015-6855: hw/ide/core.c did not properly restrict the commands accepted by an ATAPI device, which allowed guest users to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via certain IDE commands, as demonstrated by a WIN_READ_NATIVE_MAX command to an empty drive, which triggers a divide-by-zero error and instance crash (bsc#945404).
• CVE-2015-7512: Buffer overflow in the pcnet_receive function in hw/net/pcnet.c, when a guest NIC has a larger MTU, allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or execute arbitrary code via a large packet (bsc#957162).
• CVE-2015-8345: eepro100: infinite loop in processing command block list (bsc#956829).
• CVE-2015-8504: VNC: floating point exception (bsc#958491). -…

Jason Wang discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the virtio-net device. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause guest network consumption, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-7295)

Qinghao Tang and Ling Liu discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled the pcnet driver when used in loopback mode. A malicious guest could use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code on the host as the user running the QEMU process. In the default installation, when QEMU is used with libvirt, attackers would be isolated by the libvirt AppArmor profile. (CVE-2015-7504)
