KVM is a full virtualization solution for Linux on AMD64 and Intel 64 systems. The qemu-kvm packages provide the user-space component for running virtual machines using KVM. Security Fix: * An out-of-bounds read/write access flaw was found in the way QEMU"s VGA emulation with VESA BIOS Extensions support performed read/write operations via I/O port methods. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code on the host with the privileges of the host"s QEMU process. Red Hat would like to thank Wei Xiao and Qinghao Tang for reporting this issue.
