Description Prasad Pandit 2016-05-19 11:06:02 UTC
Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the ESP/NCR53C9x controller emulation support
is vulnerable to an OOB write access issue. The controller uses 16-byte FIFO
buffer for command and data transfer. The OOB write occurs while writing to
this command buffer in routine get_cmd().

A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process
resulting in DoS.
