Important: qemu security update (Amazon Linux 2)

Published Nov 9, 2020 · Updated Nov 11, 2020

Summary

Package updates are available for Amazon Linux 2 that fix the following vulnerabilities: CVE-2020-14364: An out-of-bounds read/write access flaw was found in the USB emulator of the QEMU. This issue occurs while processing USB packets from a guest when USBDevice 'setup_len' exceeds its 'data_buf[4096]' in the do_token_in, do_token_out routines. This flaw allows a guest user to crash the QEMU process, resulting in a denial of service, or the potential execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the QEMU process on the host. 1869201: CVE-2020-14364 QEMU: usb: out-of-bounds r/w access issue while processing usb packets CVE-2019-20382: A memory leakage flaw was found in the way the VNC display driver of QEMU handled the connection disconnect when ZRLE and Tight encoding are enabled. Two VncState objects are created, and one allocates memory for the Zlib's data object. This allocated memory is not freed upon disconnection, resulting in a memory leak. An attacker able to connect to the VNC server could use this flaw to leak host memory, leading to a potential denial of service. 1810390: CVE-2019-20382 QEMU: vnc: memory leakage upon disconnect
