Package : qemu
CVE ID : CVE-2018-10839 CVE-2018-17962 CVE-2018-17963
Debian Bug : 908682 910431 911468 911469
Integer overflows in the processing of packets in network cards emulated
by QEMU, a fast processor emulator, could result in denial of service.
In addition this update backports support to passthrough the new CPU
features added in the intel-microcode update shipped in DSA 4273 to
x86-based guests.
For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in
version 1:2.8+dfsg-6+deb9u5.
We recommend that you upgrade your qemu packages.
