Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2022-4144 (CCN-244281)

Assigned:2022-11-25
Published:2022-11-25
Updated:2023-03-29
Summary:An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the QXL display device emulation in QEMU. The qxl_phys2virt() function does not check the size of the structure pointed to by the guest physical address, potentially reading past the end of the bar space into adjacent pages. A malicious guest user could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host causing a denial of service condition.
