Description Mauro Matteo Cascella 2020-10-22 16:35:57 UTC 
A divide-by-zero issue was found in QEMU in the dwc-hsotg (dwc2) USB host controller emulation. More specifically, HCCHAR_MPS was read from a device register and later used as divisor without performing any sanity check. This could allow a malicious/buggy guest to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service.

Statement:

This flaw did not affect the following versions of QEMU as they did not include support for dwc2 USB host controller emulation:
* `qemu-kvm-ma` as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
* `qemu-kvm-rhev` as shipped with Red Hat Virtualization and Red Hat OpenStack.
* `qemu-kvm` as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, 7, 8, and RHEL Advanced Virtualization.
