An infinite loop flaw was found in the e1000e NIC emulation code of QEMU. This issue occurs in the e1000e_write_packet_to_guest() routine while processing bogus RX descriptor data transmitted by the guest. This flaw allows a privileged guest user to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service.
With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
