CVE-2013-0241
Published: 30 January 2013
The QXL display driver in QXL Virtual GPU 0.1.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (guest crash or hang) via a SPICE connection that prevents other threads from obtaining the qemu_mutex mutex. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

mdeslaur | needs qemu-kvm patch (included in 1.0) http://git.kernel.org/?p=virt/kvm/qemu-kvm.git;a=commit;h=5ff4e36c oneiric and precise don't have spice enabled in the qemu-kvm build. This probably only has an impact in environments where a precise guest is running on a host with spice enabled, and recent enough to supports async io. Downgrading priority to low. |
