SB2022061742 - openEuler update for qemu

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3507)

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the fdctrl_transfer_handler() function in hw/block/fdc.c while processing DMA read data transfers from the floppy drive to the guest system. A remote privileged user on the guest OS can trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and crash the QEMU process on the host OS.

2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3611)

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the Intel HD Audio device (intel-hda) of QEMU. A remote user of the guest OS trigger an out-of-bounds write and crash the QEMU process on the host.
