3. Description:

KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for
Linux on AMD64 and Intel 64 systems. The qemu-kvm packages provide the
user-space component for running virtual machines using KVM.

It was found that the Cirrus blit region checks were insufficient. A
privileged guest user could use this flaw to write outside of
VRAM-allocated buffer boundaries in the host’s QEMU process address space
with attacker-provided data. (CVE-2014-8106)

An uninitialized data structure use flaw was found in the way the
set_pixel_format() function sanitized the value of bits_per_pixel. An
attacker able to access a guest’s VNC console could use this flaw to crash
the guest. (CVE-2014-7815)

It was found that certain values that were read when loading RAM during
migration were not validated. A user able to alter the savevm data (either
on the disk or over the wire during migration) could use either of these
flaws to corrupt QEMU process memory on the (destination) host, which could
potentially result in arbitrary code execution on the host with the
privileges of the QEMU process. (CVE-2014-7840)

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way QEMU handled UDP
packets with a source port and address of 0 when QEMU’s user networking was
in use. A local guest user could use this flaw to crash the guest.
(CVE-2014-3640)

Red Hat would like to thank James Spadaro of Cisco for reporting
CVE-2014-7815, and Xavier Mehrenberger and Stephane Duverger of Airbus for
reporting CVE-2014-3640. The CVE-2014-8106 issue was found by Paolo Bonzini
of Red Hat, and the CVE-2014-7840 issue was discovered by Michael S.
Tsirkin of Red Hat.

Bug fixes:

* The KVM utility executed demanding routing update system calls every time
it performed an MSI vector mask/unmask operation. Consequently, guests
running legacy systems such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 could, under
certain circumstances, experience significant slowdown. Now, the routing
system calls during mask/unmask operations are skipped, and the performance
of legacy guests is now more consistent. (BZ#1098976)

* Due to a bug in the Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI)
driver, a qemu-kvm process terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation
fault when the “write same” command was executed in guest mode under the
iSCSI protocol. This update fixes the bug, and the “write same” command now
functions in guest mode under iSCSI as intended. (BZ#1083413)

* The QEMU command interface did not properly handle resizing of cache
memory during guest migration, causing QEMU to terminate unexpectedly with
a segmentation fault. This update fixes the related code, and QEMU no
longer crashes in the described situation. (BZ#1066338)

Enhancements:

* The maximum number of supported virtual CPUs (vCPUs) in a KVM guest has
been increased to 240. This increases the number of virtual processing
units that the user can assign to the guest, and therefore improves its
performance potential. (BZ#1134408)

* Support for the 5th Generation Intel Core processors has been added to
the QEMU hypervisor, the KVM kernel code, and the libvirt API. This allows
KVM guests to use the following instructions and features: ADCX, ADOX,
RDSFEED, PREFETCHW, and supervisor mode access prevention (SMAP).
(BZ#1116117)

* The “dump-guest-memory” command now supports crash dump compression. This
makes it possible for users who cannot use the “virsh dump” command to
require less hard disk space for guest crash dumps. In addition, saving a
compressed guest crash dump frequently takes less time than saving a
non-compressed one. (BZ#1157798)

* This update introduces support for flight recorder tracing, which uses
SystemTap to automatically capture qemu-kvm data while the guest machine is
running. For detailed instructions on how to configure and use flight
recorder tracing, see the Virtualization Deployment and Administration
Guide, linked to in the References section below. (BZ#1088112)

4. Solution:

All qemu-kvm users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches to correct these issues and add these
enhancements. After installing this update, shut down all running virtual
machines. Once all virtual machines have shut down, start them again for
this update to take effect.

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

For details on how to apply this update, refer to:
