Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: qemu-kvm security update

Notes

Topic
An update for qemu-kvm is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.7 Extended Update Support. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Details
Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on a variety of architectures. The qemu-kvm packages provide the user-space component for running virtual machines that use KVM. Security Fix(es): * QEMU: slirp: OOB buffer access while emulating tcp protocols in tcp_emu() (CVE-2020-7039) * QEMU: Slirp: potential OOB access due to unsafe snprintf() usages (CVE-2020-8608) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
