Summary
Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) offers a full virtualization solution for Linux on numerous hardware platforms. The virt:rhel module contains packages which provide user-space components used to run virtual machines using KVM. The packages also provide APIs for managing and interacting with the virtualized systems.
Security Fix(es):
* ntfs-3g: heap-based buffer overflow leads to local root privilege escalation (CVE-2019-9755)
* QEMU: slirp: information leakage in tcp_emu() due to uninitialized stack variables (CVE-2019-9824)
* QEMU: qxl: null pointer dereference while releasing spice resources (CVE-2019-12155)
