Description Prasad Pandit 2019-09-06 10:06:55 UTC
A use-after-free issue was found in the SLiRP networking implementation
of the QEMU emulator. It occurs in ip_reass() routine while reassembling
incoming packets, if the first fragment is bigger than the m->m_dat[] buffer. 

A user/process could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process on the host
resulting in DoS.
