    Package : qemu-kvm
    Vulnerability : buffer overflow
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2012-6075
    Debian Bug : 696051

    It was discovered that the e1000 emulation code in QEMU does not
    enforce frame size limits in the same way as the real hardware does.
    This could trigger buffer overflows in the guest operating system
    driver for that network card, assuming that the host system does not
    discard such frames (which it will by default).

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.12.5+dfsg-5+squeeze10.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.1.2+dfsg-4.

    We recommend that you upgrade your qemu-kvm packages.
