Description Prasad Pandit 2014-06-23 13:01:54 UTC
Qemu PCIe bus support is vulnerable to a use-after-free flaw. It could occur
via guest, when it tries to hotplug/hotunplug devices on the guest.

A user able to add & delete Virtio block devices on a guest could use this
flaw to crash the Qemu instance resulting in DoS.
