CVE-2016-2392 Qemu: usb: null pointer dereference in remote NDIS control message handling
Last modified: 2018-07-18 10:48:21 EDT
Qemu emulator built with the USB Net device emulation support is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference issue. It could occur while processing remote NDIS control message packets, when the USB configuration descriptor object is null. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process instance resulting in DoS.
