Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.7 Extended Update Support update for qemu-kvm-ma

1) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU25510

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1711

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the way the iSCSI Block driver handles a response coming from an iSCSI server while checking the status of a Logical Address Block (LBA) in an "iscsi_co_block_status()" routine. A remote authenticated attacker can trigger heap-based buffer overflow and cause a denial of service condition or potentially execute arbitrary code with privileges of the QEMU process on the host.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

2) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU25458

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7039

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the tcp_emu() function in tcp_subr.c in libslirp. An attacker can issue specially crafted IRC DCC commands in EMU_IRC, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

3) Buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU25456

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8608

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within tcp_subr.c file in libslirp. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application that is using the affected version of library, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
