Описание
A flaw was found in the USB redirector device (usb-redir) of QEMU. Small USB packets are combined into a single, large transfer request, to reduce the overhead and improve performance. The combined size of the bulk transfer is used to dynamically allocate a variable length array (VLA) on the stack without proper validation. Since the total size is not bounded, a malicious guest could use this flaw to influence the array length and cause the QEMU process to perform an excessive allocation on the stack, resulting in a denial of service.

The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
Отчет
This issue affects the version of qemu-kvm as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 Advanced Virtualization. A future update may address this flaw.
