    Package : xen-qemu-dm-4.0
    Vulnerability : buffer overflow
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2012-0029

    Nicolae Mogoraenu discovered a heap overflow in the emulated e1000e
    network interface card of QEMU, which is used in the xen-qemu-dm-4.0
    packages. This vulnerability might enable to malicious guest systems
    to crash the host system or escalate their privileges.

    The old stable distribution (lenny) does not contain the
    xen-qemu-dm-4.0 package.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 4.0.1-2+squeeze1.

    The testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution (sid)
    will be fixed soon.
