Redhat » Enterprise Virtualization : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs,

Buffer overflow in the jas_stream_printf function in libjasper/base/jas_stream.c in JasPer 1.900.1 might allow context-dependent attackers to have an unknown impact via vectors related to the mif_hdr_put function and use of vsprintf.

Stack-based buffer overflow in libpixman, as used in Pale Moon before 15.4 and possibly other products, has unspecified impact and context-dependent attack vectors. NOTE: this issue might be resultant from an integer overflow in the fast_composite_scaled_bilinear function in pixman-inlines.h, which triggers an infinite loop.

DHCP packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7, Fedora 28, and earlier are vulnerable to a command injection flaw in the NetworkManager integration script included in the DHCP client. A malicious DHCP server, or an attacker on the local network able to spoof DHCP responses, could use this flaw to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges on systems using NetworkManager and configured to obtain network configuration using the DHCP protocol.

The Floppy Disk Controller (FDC) in QEMU, as used in Xen 4.5.x and earlier and KVM, allows local guest users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and guest crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via the (1) FD_CMD_READ_ID, (2) FD_CMD_DRIVE_SPECIFICATION_COMMAND, or other unspecified commands, aka VENOM.

ovirt-engine API and administration web portal before versions 4.2.2.5, 4.1.11.2 is vulnerable to an exposure of Power Management credentials, including cleartext passwords to Host Administrators. A Host Administrator could use this flaw to gain access to the power management systems of hosts they control.

VDSM and libvirt in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor (aka RHEV-H) 7-7.x before 7-7.2-20151119.0 and 6-6.x before 6-6.7-20151117.0 as packaged in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization before 3.5.6 when VSDM is run with -spice disable-ticketing and a VM is suspended and then restored, allows remote attackers to log in without authentication via unspecified vectors.

Unquoted Windows search path vulnerability in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 3 and 3.2 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application in an unspecified folder.

Unquoted Windows search path vulnerability in the SPICE service, as used in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 3.2, allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application in an unspecified folder.

Unquoted Windows search path vulnerability in the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Application Provisioning Tool (RHEV-APT) in the rhev-guest-tools-iso package 3.2 allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse application.

The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in GNU C Library (aka glibc) 2.5, 2.12, and probably other versions does not "properly restrict the use of" the alloca function when allocating the SPECS array, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFY_SOURCE format-string protection mechanism and cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted format string using positional parameters and a large number of format specifiers, a different vulnerability than CVE-2012-3404 and CVE-2012-3405.

ovirt-engine-webadmin, as used in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager (aka RHEV-M) for Servers and RHEV-M 4.0, allows physically proximate attackers to bypass a webadmin session timeout restriction via vectors related to UI selections, which trigger repeating queries.

When updating a password in the rhvm database the ovirt-aaa-jdbc-tool tools before 1.1.3 fail to correctly check for the current password if it is expired. This would allow access to an attacker with access to change the password on accounts with expired passwords, gaining access to those accounts.

libspice, as used in QEMU-KVM in the Hypervisor (aka rhev-hypervisor) in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 2.2 and qspice 0.3.0, does not properly validate guest QXL driver pointers, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference and guest OS crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

libspice, as used in QEMU-KVM in the Hypervisor (aka rhev-hypervisor) in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 2.2 and qspice 0.3.0, does not properly restrict the addresses upon which memory-management actions are performed, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

QEMU-KVM, as used in the Hypervisor (aka rhev-hypervisor) in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 2.2 and KVM 83, does not properly validate guest QXL driver pointers, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference and guest OS crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

The subpage MMIO initialization functionality in the subpage_register function in exec.c in QEMU-KVM, as used in the Hypervisor (aka rhev-hypervisor) in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 2.2 and KVM 83, does not properly select the index for access to the callback array, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

vdsm and vdsclient does not validate certficate hostname from another vdsm which could facilitate a man-in-the-middle attack

Virtual Desktop Server Manager (VDSM) in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 2.2 does not properly accept TCP connections for SSL sessions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage) via crafted SSL traffic.

Insecure temporary file vulnerability in RedHat vsdm 4.9.6.

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) Manager 3.6 allows local users to obtain encryption keys, certificates, and other sensitive information by reading the engine-setup log file.

oVirt Engine discloses the ENGINE_HTTPS_PKI_TRUST_STORE_PASSWORD in /var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log file in RHEV before 4.0.

The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in libc in GNU C Library (aka glibc) 2.12 and other versions does not properly calculate a buffer length, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFY_SOURCE format-string protection mechanism and cause a denial of service (stack corruption and crash) via a format string that uses positional parameters and many format specifiers.

The vfprintf function in stdio-common/vfprintf.c in libc in GNU C Library (aka glibc) 2.14 and other versions does not properly calculate a buffer length, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the FORTIFY_SOURCE format-string protection mechanism and cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and crash) via a format string with a large number of format specifiers that triggers "desynchronization within the buffer size handling," a different vulnerability than CVE-2012-3404.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the reds_handle_ticket function in server/reds.c in SPICE 0.12.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long password in a SPICE ticket.

The Hypervisor (aka rhev-hypervisor) in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 2.2, and KVM 83, when the Intel VT-x extension is enabled, allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and host OS crash) via vectors related to instruction emulation.
