Description

QEMU, possibly before 2.0.0, allows local users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and crash) via a zero value in the (1) tracks field to the seek_to_sector function in block/parallels.c or (2) extent_size field in the bochs function in block/bochs.c.

Solution(s)

  • gentoo-linux-upgrade-app-emulation-qemu

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.
