Subject: Re: CVE request: Qemu: scsi: stack based buffer overflow in megasas_ctrl_get_info

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256

> Qemu emulator built with the SCSI MegaRAID SAS HBA emulation support is
> vulnerable to a stack buffer overflow issue. It occurs while processing the
> SCSI controller's CTRL_GET_INFO command. A privileged guest user could use
> this flaw to crash the Qemu process instance resulting in DoS.

>> A stack overflow issue was reported by Mr Qinghao Tang ... It
>> occurs while processing the SCSI controller's CTRL_GET_INFO command,

>> scsi: initialise info object with appropriate size
