1. Summary:

An update for qemu-kvm is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 9) - aarch64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64

3. Description:

Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) is a full virtualization solution for
Linux on a variety of architectures. The qemu-kvm packages provide the
user-space component for running virtual machines that use KVM.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
qemu-kvm (7.0.0). (BZ#2064757)

Security Fix(es):

* QEMU: hcd-ehci: DMA reentrancy issue leads to use-after-free
(CVE-2021-3750)

* QEMU: fdc: heap buffer overflow in DMA read data transfers
(CVE-2021-3507)

* QEMU: intel-hda: segmentation fault due to stack overflow (CVE-2021-3611)

* QEMU: NULL pointer dereference in pci_write() in hw/acpi/pcihp.c
(CVE-2021-4158)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE
page(s) listed in the References section.

Additional Changes:

For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 9.1 Release Notes linked from the References section.

4. Solution:

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:
