Summary
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.
The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: qemu-kvm (7.2.0). (BZ#2111769, BZ#2135806)
Security Fix(es):
* QEMU: VNC: integer underflow in vnc_client_cut_text_ext leads to CPU exhaustion (CVE-2022-3165)
* QEMU: ACPI ERST: memory corruption issues in read_erst_record and write_erst_record (CVE-2022-4172)
