[SECURITY] [DLA 1350-1] qemu-kvm security update



Package        : qemu-kvm
Version        : 1.1.2+dfsg-6+deb7u25
CVE ID         : CVE-2018-7550
Debian Bug     : 892041

The load_multiboot function in hw/i386/multiboot.c in Quick Emulator
(aka QEMU) allows local guest OS users to execute arbitrary code on
the QEMU host via a mh_load_end_addr value greater than
mh_bss_end_addr, which triggers an out-of-bounds read or write memory
access.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
1.1.2+dfsg-6+deb7u25.

We recommend that you upgrade your qemu-kvm packages.
