Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
QEMU (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue is related to the get cmd function in the 53C9X Fast SCSI Controller (FSC) support, which does not properly check DMA length. This allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service, resulting in an out-of-bounds write and a QEMU process crash, via unspecified vectors involving an SCSI command.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
