Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Out-of-bounds read

EUVDB-ID: #VU28283

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-13253

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in the SD Memory Card emulator while performing block write commands via sdhci_write() in QEMU. A remote user of guest operating system can trigger out-of-bounds read error and crash the QEMU process. 

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

2) Infinite loop

EUVDB-ID: #VU59085

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-20257

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop in the e1000 NIC emulator when processing transmits (tx) descriptors in process_tx_desc of QEMU. A remote user can consume all available CPU resources and cause denial of service conditions.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
