qemu update to version 0.10.1 fixes the following security issues :

CVE-2008-0928: problems with range checks of block devices CVE-2008-1945: problems with removable media handling CVE-2008-2382:
vnc server DoS CVE-2008-4539: fix a heap overflow in the cirrus VGA implementation CVE-2008-5714: off by one error in vnc password handling

Avi Kivity discovered that KVM did not correctly handle certain disk formats. A local attacker could attach a malicious partition that would allow the guest VM to read files on the VM host. (CVE-2008-1945, CVE-2008-2004)

Alfredo Ortega discovered that KVM's VNC protocol handler did not correctly validate certain messages. A remote attacker could send specially crafted VNC messages that would cause KVM to consume CPU resources, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2008-2382)

Jan Niehusmann discovered that KVM's Cirrus VGA implementation over VNC did not correctly handle certain bitblt operations. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to potentially execute arbitrary code on the VM host or crash KVM, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2008-4539)

It was discovered that KVM's VNC password checks did not use the correct length. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to cause KVM to crash, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2008-5714).

USN-776-1 fixed vulnerabilities in KVM. Due to an incorrect fix, a regression was introduced in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS that caused KVM to fail to boot virtual machines started via libvirt. This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the QEMU processor emulator. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  - CVE-2008-0928     Ian Jackson discovered that range checks of file     operations on emulated disk devices were insufficiently     enforced.

  - CVE-2008-1945     It was discovered that an error in the format auto     detection of removable media could lead to the     disclosure of files in the host system.

  - CVE-2008-4539     A buffer overflow has been found in the emulation of the     Cirrus graphics adaptor.

CVE-2008-4539: fix a heap overflow in Cirrus emulation

The code in hw/cirrus_vga.c has changed a lot between CVE-2007-1320 has been announced and the patch has been applied. As a consequence it has wrongly applied and QEMU is still vulnerable to this bug if using VNC.
