Subject: CVE request Qemu: display: virtio-gpu-3d: OOB access while reading
 virgl capabilities

   Hello,

Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the Virtio GPU Device emulator support is 
vulnerable to an out of bounds memory access issue. It could occur while 
processing 'VIRTIO_GPU_CMD_GET_CAPSET' command.

A guest user/process could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process instance on 
a host, resulting in DoS.
