Description
The issue is related to an out-of-bounds read of up to 128 bytes in the
i2c ddc() function, located in the hw/i2c/i2c-ddc.c file. A local attacker with permission to execute i2c commands could exploit this to read stack memory of the qemu process on the host, potentially revealing protected information.Recommendations

i2c ddc() function in the hw/i2c/i2c-ddc.c file until a patch is available.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
