Qemu emulator built with the IDE Emulation PCI PIIX3/4 support is vulnerable to a use-after-free flaw. It could occur when trying to write data to an I/O port inside guest. This issue is specific to the Xen platform. A privileged(CAP_SYS_RAWIO) guest user on the Xen platform could use this flaw to crash the Qemu instance or probably attempt to make a guest escape. Upstream fix: ------------- -> git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=6cd387833d05e8ad31829d97e474dc420625aed9 Reference: ---------- -> http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2015/08/03/3
