Description Prasad J Pandit 2016-12-07 02:19:01 EST
Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the USB redirector usb-guest support is
vulnerable to a memory leakage flaw. It could occur while destroying the USB
redirector in 'usbredir_handle_destroy'.

A guest user/process could use this issue to leak host memory, resulting in
DoS for a host.
